Thanks!
The movie really reminds me of many high school buddies. I can compare just about every character in the movie to someone that I hung out with in school. I graduated in 82 so it wasn't far off!!

The real reason I used the name is just the fact that it is going to be a completely confused collection of parts. AMC car, 69 Camaro front sub frame components, big block Ford engine, Ford trans and rear end. Everything else is going to be aftermarket.

It would have been really easy and faster to do an LS, but Jimi and Randy have already done that. I don't want to copy his any more than I already have. They did an amazing job on that car. I want to do something different.
I think this will accomplish that!!

Very cool collection of family cars and cool build going on now. Looking forward to watching it progress.

I know you are an FE guy so you'll understand the last two photos.
We also have these in the family:

I can relate to the first picture also.

I always like the 67s best even if the driving lights made them overheat.

Now if we could just get an FE in the Javeline :D

:cheers:

I love old Shoebox Broncos!! The Jeep has a 351W in it out of a 91 Bronco. I retained all of the factory fuel injection.
An FE in the Javelin was a thought. There is another 427 in my Dads garage looking for a home... He would like it to find its way into a 64 Fairlane Tbolt clone...

Thanks! We'll see if we can live up to it!!
I am doing this at home in my spare time but working 6 days a weeks makes for slow going!

Just ordered headers today. I think we are going to have to do some modifications to make them work. For some reason nobody makes an engine swap header for an AMC Javelin with Ford big block!
