I originally had a 460 Dove head for my lady, also a 429 bellhousing for a 4 speed top loader. I cut the shock towers and had it in but decided to lighten it up and go with the roller 5.0. C-4 so it would be an easier street machine. I bet the big block will be fun.

Very nice looking Fairlane! I would love to do coil overs on mine but I'm afraid to cut it up. I will be updating my page soon.

Nice looking Fairlane. Love the 460. Wish I had used one. My 71 Torino is plenty fast I just don't have to think about twisting it in half. Take a look at mine. Good Luck

And your car is very nice. Wish I had something like that to start out with instead of what I'm currently working on, but I guess you take what you get when you're broke.

I just used a sandblaster on the engine compartment of my car after removing everything that was in it, though I have heard that a good way is just to use that aircraft stripper to remove the majority of paint, and a sander on what it doesn't get. I know you don't want to sandblast on body panels, because it leaves them wavy after they're painted. I guess this might go for the engine compartment too, but I wasn't that worried about it.
