This full-sized Ford 2dr hardtop has had all trim shaved off, and a good blue paint job with pinstriping accents it from front to back. Lookin to have it re-painted someday due to some recent damage to the right fender from a 70 mph deer hit.
This is an original 390 CI "FE" block. I bought the car knowing it had been rebuilt, but not what exactly had been done. I tore it apart and found it to have a 427 crank and a .030 overbore. However, everything else except the cam was stock. So, i took it upon myself to give this motor some much-needed attention, since these engines are rarely built due to their wieght and general cost. These particular engines are one of the few that are more expensive than Mopar to build. With help of friends Domo and Mike, we got it as it looks today. Roller rockers and lifters keep the timing smooth, and an MSD electronic distributor sends the spark. Edelbrock water pump keeps it cool, and powermaster alternator keeps the lights on for me. The intake, an edelbrock highrise victor manifold, shines like a mirror. Gas is fed through a holley 650 double pumper carb. Punch the pedal to the floor it throws you in your seat till either you had enough or run out of gas lol.
The process of re-enforcing the hood supports due to a hole added for a tear-drop scoop. Check out the headlight arrangement, i have been stopped by people several times cause they're convinced it is a Pontiac GTO lol.
...The whole gang lined up
