Wade & Keith, I here ya with 57 Bird it would be cool. I just don't think I can pull the trigger on the roadster. I'd have to do all the up dates for the 7.50 spec but Jimmy is talking about building a brandX engine for it ? The Blue car in stock would be way cool I'm not sure a 289 could be competitive in a 66 Fairlane. If a 390 could be built for dual purpose, run the index in stock, and the occasional street cruse that would be the best of both world. Plus you know I have a thing for Fairlanes. I do want to run Indy some day, maybe go ahead and just build a new engine for the red car so I can run S/St and S/G when I want to. Cost is always the major factor I'm not planning on going back to work full time for ether project. It's just time for a change. WHAT TO DO???????????
