man i like the hell out of that engine. nice work on the inners. :thumbsup:

Thanks lilbuzzy I like this motor more and more every day ... As far as the chevelle motor set back I don't think it is but let me double check the specs in the morning and I'll get back to you ... Next time your down near the ham let me know you can come by the shop and I'll buy you lunch

It looks great , sweet looking engine.

I'm really digging this build. It's about time these later Mach 1s get some love. I like the way Ben modernized the lines of the car. It's going to be real interesting.
Mustangs are coming on strong in '10!!!

will do man. hurry up and finish the mustang. i can't wait to see it all together.

looks good.:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

thanks man we appreciate it a lot and its crazy you say that about the mustang's new found popularity , after a couple conversations with the Ring Bros. at Sema we talked about our next project being a 69 fastback and they informed us of their 70 project and we said wow cool,...then we nail everything down with Phil and Jeremy at RS about them doing the chassis and they let us know about their next track car and we said oh,.....THEN we hear through the grapevine of yours and Steves collaboration and we said OK... and ask the customer that instead of continuing on the 69 we were 20% into what he thought of testing the uncharted waters of the 71-73 boat of a car to try and stand out in the what we feel will be a sea of STANGS over the next couple years (its gonna be a revolution) ..and he never questioned it he said lets do it...and to top it off several months ago we see the first renderings AND YOURS IS WHITE which is the color this customer wanted from the start of all this ...So I say all of this to say its interesting to see that when a group of very talented innovators from all over the country try and think outside the box they all end up outside the box together ...thats funny... anyway thats just a liitle background on the car and our thought process hope it all works out and I cant wait to see what you guys pull off , should be awsome Strope has a style all his own and thats awsome when everyone is all keep it clean this and keep it simple that he really acheives it.... perfection through simplicity ,amazing. Oh and by they way I think we met in Columbus when I was talking with Phil and you stopped by for a minute it was good to meet you and cant wait for the next update

don't know if i can make it for lunch, but i will be at uab this moring. plan to drop by...........if you guys are going to be there.

richie

Look forward to meeting you

Thanks!
 

Had a great time checking out the projects today. You were all very hospitable. Thanks for taking the time to show me around. People if you are looking to get a pt car built, and you live in the southeast, you need to get in line at Goolsby's before it gets too long.
