I started with this 67 Hardtop when I was 15.

 TARA-fied's 1967 Ford Mustang

With some help from my now brother-in-law and my dad we transformed it into this on a HS teenager budget! After HS I built the engine with every hot rod speed secret known at the time. I had some early 289 casting heads reworked for 2.02 Chevy intake valves and 1.94 exhaust and srew-in studs and guide plates and ported them. The chambers combined with .030" over flat top pistons gave me 12.5:1 Compression ratio. I had a radical Comp Cam, windage tray, Torker II intake, Holley 750CFM Mallory dual points and Hooker headers. I detryed a few C4's so I built a C5 and added a high stall torque converter. I even broke that so I put in a C6 from a E150 van with a small block bolt pattern, I never broke that trans! I had to run octane booster or high octane racing fuel which even back then was expensive but she would scream! I had a Maverak rear-end which was narrower than the original so it looked like it was mini tubbed with those 9.5" wide 50 series BFG's on the back.
