This is the next post in my Brooklin in Illinois series.  It features the 1968 Ford Mustang Cobra Jet in Lime Gold (BRK235 and ELMo 03).  The background photo shows the old single lane bridge for Rawson Road over the Fox River near Cary.  The first time I drove over this bridge, I was driving my 1967 Mustang, which looked similar to this model.  It had a 289 V8 engine.  The bridge in the picture was replaced by a modern structure many years ago.
