Did you ever race it? I changed gears back in 67 to 4.88's added an L-88 cam and headers. DROVE to the track on 8 inch (all that would fit) slicks ran a bunch of 11.0's and one 10.97 at the old Aquasco drag strip in southern Md. The 4 1/2 MPG's was rough even back in the cheap gas days....lol. Ended up putting the 3.55's back in it. Marina Blue rag top, black interior and side pipes. Loved it but man was it ever HOT to drive in the summer.

No. I barely got it broken in. The day I purchased the car was the day I graduated from Artillery Officers Candidate School at Ft. Sill, OK. I went to Vietnam in February 1968. I had made the decision to keep the car. I was shot in April 1968 and then shot again in June 1968. I made the decision then to sell the car at that time....dumb decision.

There is a man in San Diego that has 17 of these in his car collection. He has more than 17 but the 17 he displays are 100 point show cars. He also has many other rare muscle cars.

I like the new mustangs and I think they will win at Indy. Does anyone have a picture of the crank ? Im told it looks very similar to the callies ultra light which is based on the newest oem design. I will say that I think the guys running these cars have them detuned at this stag of the game and wont have to show what they really got for a few years.

Here's a link to my website that shows our 5.4 Cobra Jet engine going together. There is a photo of the crank. http://9500rpm.com/shelby/project5.html

Do you want another one before it catches fire?

So what about the other class winners B/S , B/SA and down, lets hear something about who is the fastest.

Larry, I figure you and a couple of your friends could win with a little threat of bodily injury to the ford guys.

No doubt in my mind who will win B/SA -- That's if Sal Biondo shows up with Billy Hawks' "Black Beauty" in tow .
