    I always remember this place mentioned in a few car magazines, Think they sold a lot of gm performance parts. http://www.scoggindickey.com/en_US/
    Not as famous as yenko, but baldwin motion modified factory vehicles.

    Also mentions other performance dealerships in the link.

    Interesting links. There was a dealer in St Louis I believe that put out the Mustang Twister, a very limited edition. I will see if I can find some info on it.

    I heard of that, the twister. Was at a website and it listed special models of mustangs, there were quite a few, and of course there was the california special, but those were done by ford I believe.
