LOL yea, good catch

 

I'm sorry I thought that was a given. Those of us that got their sticker in pdf before they got the car forget people don't know how easy it is to fake.

WhY?? Someone must have two much money and time on their hands.

 

Why you ask ??

Some of you guys kill me !

Either whining that it is impratical or over-priced and the silly people who
thought it was actually going to be offered by Ford. HAHAHAHA

The motor in this car, a 427 SOHC, is the original "Cammer". The main
purpose of this engine was to compete with the 426 Hemi after they began to dominate factory drag racing in the early '60s.

Once this motor was introduced to the Ford teams they won the events all
over including the Winternationals. But the engine was overly complex and way ahead of its time.

Now I'm not sure what a 427 SOHC is going for these days but they are rare as chicken molars.

I think they car is clean looking and the motor looks like it is right at home there. I would like to know what kind of tranny they are using and what it does in the 1/4 mile!

Like that racing tach.

 

 

Good point! I thought it was real too! That is a bit of a far fetched price if you think about it though!

 

I'm surprised if anyone really thought that Ford produced that vehicle and not a dealer or an individual. I do think it's pretty cool though and if I were loaded (wealthy, not drunk) I might spend that much on one because it is rare. I mean can you even get a 427 SOHC "Cammer" anywhere?

On a side note...are PDF versions of anyone's Mustang available? I'd love to get mine.

 

I guess its a kinda expensive way to get that "big-block" sound that everyone is trying for, but I do like it!!!

 

10-4 on the odd suspension!!

Get something up front ASAP!!

 

for that kind of price i would rather buy a 427 S/C Shelby motor with a 482ci block from unique performance and its rated at 725HP+ and still have 25K left over

 

I read in some magazine that the window sticker was made to show the cost of the car plus upgrades he added to the cae. It is featured in a readers rides of some magazine I cant seem to find again.

 

Definitely not the 3650... Look at the position of the shifter handle.

 

That's what I'm doing if I win the lottery...

Getting a new GT coupe, stripping all the badges, painting it highland green, sticking on some 18"" black Bullitts, and shoving a 427 FE in it. And a TKO-600 and a Currie 9". Yeah...

EDIT: Well, as to what it may do in the 1/4mi... what's reasonable for 600rwhp and a 3900lb race weight?

 

+1 on the collectors item but it is out of control expensive!!!

 

Whoa...that's a project! I wonder how much (if any) of the electronics work inside the car. Maybe all the gauges were replaced.

 

These motors were the ultimate Ford Power plant, they were never put in a production car, but I remember a fellow I worked with bought one brand new in the crate for $6000 in the mid seventies. He put it in a 68 KR500 Shelby adding a flip top front end and a solid front axle. A straight line terror. They were conservatively rated at 425 HP but could easily put out over 600HP with a few goodies and a 671 Blower on top was the ultimate.

That engine was Ford's answer the Chrysler hemi. It was alot better actually. Being overhead cam it had alot less internal friction than the Chrysler hemi and it was lghter too. It's really too bad they never made it into production.
They are so rare I am not suprised that most people have never heard of it.

 

If I had more money than I knew what to do with, I would buy it and every other far out car that I thought was cool!

 

Last time I saw that motor complete and for sale. It was about $27k. And that was more than a couple years ago. So if $60k counts as all the work he has done to it. Then the figure is pretty accurate. Since about half of it is taken on just buying the motor.
