Here it is..
Being thats its been together for such a long time I am redoing a lot of things that I did back in the day when I was young and dumb. I made the inner fenders and I am looking to replace the firewall with one from RDS. I don't have much time for working on any of my toys since I stay busy at the car lot and not to mention we take our 2 year old son with us to work everyday.
Here is a cool lincoln picture yall might like. Nothing to see here just teaching a 2 year old how to install a 4150 on a Mark iii.
This car was drug out of John's Salvage in Seguin in 2001 when I was 15. It wasn't for sale but my dad knew him from way back in the day and he talked him into selling it to me as a favor. I finished it 2008 when I graduated college and like any young kid I was racing the hell out of it and terrifying anyone who would get in it. It's a pump gas 427 out of 69 Vette but has GM oval port heads that had an insane amount of porting work done them back in the 80s. Car runs consistent 11.3s (not fast in todays world) and has ran an all time best of 10.23 on a 300 of nitrous. Clean whitewalls

Re: Clean whitewalls
Ahh! It’s pictures like this that make me regret ever putting the Cougar back to stock. I love that shoebox styling…they look great as a traditional hot rod.
You’d have been king of the street around Indianapolis in the ‘70s with low 11’s. One of my best friends had about the fastest car around that wouldn’t get you arrested for just driving on the street (a highly modified ‘68 CJ Mustang), and he was only running low 12’s. I kept the small block in the Cougar, but with 12:1, a roller cam, ported 351W heads, etc, etc, I managed a 12.95 (exactly once).
That’s such a sweet picture with your son, I had to show it to the wife.
