Hot rod compiled a top 10 most Awesome Fords, I think they missed a couple

I think they missed the 1971 Ford Supervan, http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2014/01/original-gt-40-chassis-under-van.html


A GT40 chassis and its  400hp 302 gave a standard pressed-steel Mark 1 Transit bodyshell a claimed top speed of around 150 mph.

the Mach 40,

unveiled at the 2012 SEMA  http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2012/11/most-of-cars-at-sema-are-impressive.html

and the GPT Special, (Talladega by Trepanier)

any of these is more impressive than the lame F250 Hot Rod chose for #11
#10 was the Fairlane built by Pure Vision / Steve Strope (2014 Best of Show at SEMA)

#9 is another "me too" Mustang
#8 are the prototype 1970 Mercury Cyclone Spoiler II/1970 Ford Torino King Cobra
which are Cinderella's ugly twin step sisters

#7 is the 1995 GT90 prototype

#6 is a rear engine 1970 Mach One
#5 isn't even a Ford, it's the Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe 50th anniversary edition
#4 is the RS200, a European made mid 80's Group B awd Rally car that is unique, but you wouldn't want your friends to see you drive it, instead of a cool late 60's Mustang. It was never sold in the USA, and frankly, not really a Ford if it's not made and sold in the USA
#3 isn't a Ford either, it's a Shelby AC Cobra Dragonsnake (body by AC, scary fast everything else by Shelby)
#2 2014 Factory race car Mustang, lightweight dragster "Cobra Jet"
#1 Ken Block's Hoonicorn. Not really a Ford either. 4 wheel drive 850hp drift car.
