I was so lucky a buddy from Oregon wanted to buy my supercharged Mustang, it was becoming impossible to put it close enough to stock each inspection to get it to pass. Bastards, could blown as clean as if it were not running, but have non approved parts..........
All that too, you got it. Government once again was there to destroy and control.
Smart move dumping the Mustang. Sad but smart.
Btw, they did the same with GA, General Aviation. They all but destroyed it except for folks with big $$$.
