Love it!!!

How about a 78 T-Bird, 400? There is alot of potential lurking in a 400, cleveland-type heads, C6 and a 9", a ton of torque, and easy as heck to find?

I'm being pointed towards a 460-powered 74 Torino, but the 'Bird popped out at me.

In 200+ posts, no one mentioned this cream puff. 1964 Ford Galaxie 352/250 in O/SA. It gets a 1.12 Autolite or a 470 Holley. You can still buy a complete core engine for $150.

Blair, is that you? I don't know if that would qualify as a "Dime Rocket" but it is sure a "Rocket Ship" and I can't believe that there aren't a dozen Stockers and a hundred SS and GT cars out there with that combo.
Since you've brought up the 352, can you give us any real $.10 FE combos?
