    And when gas was 30.9/34.9 - notice the price as the 63 Chevy passes the Standard station near the start of the video....

    Exactly
    If you get it,What about a short tire big gear and no tranny? Clutch only, should be light enough so you wouldn't have to have a killer motor just a big stroke!!

    We have had a lot of fun running our 55 Chevy Gasser. But we want to get a FED as well. Why not do both? I say get it and don't look back. We have an association out here called A.N.R.A. They have nostalgia classes including Eliminator I, II, and III. Three is a 9.6 index which you could do in that rail easily with a small block. Less expense, and not so fast for Grandpa's. If you don't want it, can you hook me up?

    Wow Dave sounds sweet, too good to pass up.
    I think it would just be nice to have, if it was dew able.
    And if you don't have room to park it, you could tie it

    I love the shot for Car Craft mag cover, with the cab of the mustang flipped up, open. I've only seen cars where either the engine canopy flipped up, or the whole body, never the cab and rear only. Pretty cool! And I like his choice in cars!
