Default 1961 Starliner with twin turbos

Hello Gents! I've been trolling this site and a few others looking for good info and education and its been very helpful so thank you! Since Im about ready to start my project Im gonna put a build page together and share what I will be spending my time on for the next few years Im sure.

This is my 1961 Ford Starliner. I know its a big car in regards to some of the other vehicles in the pro-touring world but its a car that was used in NASCAR and can handle great if I do it right. I have a big block 427 FE engine that Im gonna run twin turbos to. Ultimately Im looking for a nice smooth running car with lots of low end torque and around 800 hp.

I picked this up in Arkansas and had it shipped out to me. It had been sitting in a junkyard rotting away but amazingly she's pretty straight less a dent in the passengerside front fender and a small dent in the passengerside quarter panel. There's a lot more rust than Im used to seeing but I think thats because I've never gotten a car from back east. So anyways here she is in all her patina glory
