Theirs was 76 model. Different body style. My mother bought one withe the 351 2V. she would let me borrow it, to go to Irwindale and OCIR. it was a gutless wonder.

Went to Holbrook Racing Engines and picked up our new bullet... We saw some Factory X eye candy while we were there.

I purchased a drum of VP Racing Fuels C-10 from Keith Brewer at Injector Experts. I will also be purchasing 5 gallon pails from Klingler as stand by. We will be thrashing on this build trying to make it out to Cavalcade Of Stars at Summit Motorsports Park. That is the goal anyways.

I filled up my Mark Yacavone Torque Converter with Blud Racing Lubricants Pro Series Type F before seating it into my Trans. we got the Holbrook Racing Ford 302 and Kent Brewer built C4 trans in the car and I hooked up the driveshaft. Bolted up my Mike Graham built Autolite 2 barrel Carburetor. I also went from Chrome to Black
