I really wish I could afford that.   Oh, and to pay someone to finish it too.  I'd probably put a stroked 351W in it with a built AOD behind it and just cruise that mutha....

--sigh--

(mental note:  put 'buying a lotto ticket' on todays' to-do list)

Meh-there's no end of work left, and who knows what was actually done to it.


I try to avoid other peoples unfinished projects.

Nothing like a great picture to help sell a car.

Good ad copy and search words, though.  [laugh]

Foolin' around on Ebay motors friday night and came across this 'un:

Not an FE motor, but she would be an awesome driver!

Starliners are soooo damn cool!   8)


Sell the Cleveland motor and get a 390FE truck block. They're cheap, plentiful and have the extra webbing in the mains.

Then get the Scat stroker kit and enjoy 445ci of sheer nasty torque.  [evil] [evil] [evil]

I'd keep the 351C and the FMX as is for now...  And build a nicely done FE on the side to swap in later w/a built AOD.

Mmmm....Ranch Wagon.

That would be a kickass shop go-fer once complete. Or hell, leave it in black primer forever.
