Thanks you guys.

Decided to show you guys some more pics of the car and what I´m planing on doing this winter.

Taken at a car show this August in Reykjavik, Iceland.


This one is taken at a car show last May in Reykjavik, Iceland




Also put together this September a ´69 351W engine that I´ve had for some time. It´s bored .030 over (357cid) has ported heads, I-beam rods, Ross pistons, 1.6 Crane roller rocker arms, Hyd flat tapped camshaft (216/228 @ .050) and 0.484 int./0.512 in exh. lift. With this, puts in about 10.5:1 comp. ratio. 650cfm Holley carb, Ford Racing valve covers + air cleaner, Hooker Super Competition Cheramic Coated headers. Still missing aluminum water pump, electric fuel pump and electric fan, aluminum radiator and pulley kit. Has a rebuilt C4 transmission (TCI Rebuilt kit) and TurboAction valve body. 10" StreetFighter Converter stalls at 3000-3500. 9" Ford rear end with 3.70 Richmond gears and a Detroit Locker. Wilwood disc-brakes front and rear, (missing). Also missing some new rubber in the rear, really want to buy Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial Tires.

Planing on tearing the front end to pieces, paint the engine compartment and rebuilt the front end with a front suspension rebuilt kit from MustangsUnlimted.

Egnine pics.

Wow, Who cares if it isn't a GT. It is sweet. Sounds like it is going to haul pretty good when you're done... er well when the engine goes in.
