I have an old Fabulous Mustangs Magazine with a story on when the editor bought the car from Barbara and restored it.
Wasn't that editor Jeff Tann? Think that is the issue I have too..

I am confused... Is the Grabber Green Q code, auto, 4.30 car a Sportsroof "02" body, or a Mach 1 "05" body?

If it's a 02 Sportsroof how could there be "29 1970 Grabber Green SCJ Sportsroofs" when there were only 28 Q code SCJ's Sportsroofs total? Does the 29 Grabber Green cars include R code Sportsroofs? Not doubting anything anybody has said just looking for some clarification to satisfy my curiousity.

This is one for the "learn something everyday" file. Scott states that a scoop was optional on the 70 Q code Mach. Not doubting that, but I have sure never seen a Q code without a scoop.
