/ GREG VISCOME’S ’89 ’STANG IS ABOUT AS STOCK AS THEY GET

WHEN MANY ENTHUSIASTS DAYDREAM ABOUT WHEELING A DRAG CAR, VISIONS OF PRO MODS OR FUNNY CARS SWIRL IN THEIR HEAD. Yet, some racers find success with a lot less horsepower and smaller budgets than people might think. Greg Viscome of Minneapolis might be one of those guys with this M/Stock Automatic Fox-body Mustang.

Strip off the lettering, bolt on some stock mufflers and wheels and this would easily pass for any other Mustang you might see at a local cruise-in. The name Vindicator over the rear wheel well shows this car goes out looking for justice, while a tiny “47” in the lettering shows this is but one in a long line of family race cars.
