already my favorite car on here, sad to see your talking about getting rid of her. although seeing an early falcon build on here would be awesome

subscribed. great to see another classic on here. love the 500s.

floor done?

Nah, haven't even attempted to yet. I have the sheetmetal, Im just trying to finish up the engine and get it in. Theres so much rust. The plan right now is to slap the 390 back in, drive it till the tranny blows, then find a falcon or something to swap the built engine into.

I havent updated this in a long time.

This car sucks. Its rusty, ugly, has a shitty transmission in it, and it still has no engine. However, my engine is almost built. Soon, it will be semi quick, and low.

i know it was a while back, but do you possibly remember where the smaller line on the booster went to? i have a 66 tbird im working on and the line is plugged. Same motor

Sorry dude, I dont. Now Im worried because I have no idea.

From What I remember they are.

The 390s are not rev happy motors, but they make gobs of torque. My moms 65 turdbird is a 390. Drop it into first and it will roast the tires all day long.

Unfortunately this has an autotragic in it So I'll drop it into low and still roast tires! Yeah, they dont like much above 5k stock

I <3 4 doors.

I do too!

Truth. FE big blocks are so much fun!

They're like legos

i like 4 doors and i like this

Just an FYI. If you use 77-79 Thunderbird front knuckles it drops you a couple Inches.
