1969 Torino

[FETorino]

I got a progress picture today that really has me motivated.



For anyone who likes the old school stuff here is the dual four intake I bought to try out.

Is this thing moving slower than my barely moving junk?

Yea it seems that way doesn't it. The guys at RS are making lots of progress on the chassis. The motor will be on the dyno soon. And a few more surprises in the works.

I did have sense enough to abandon this.

What kinda car is that again? It looks pretty big and slow to me.

It's ligther than I thought. It really just comes down to home much extra stuff you can live without.

It will be plenty heavy by the time its done. That's what the cubes are for to overcome the heft.

Congrats on the progress. The frame is looking sweet.

I can't take any credit for that it is all the Roadster Shop and their talent.

Yea, it's overkill to put this much effort into a Blue oval just to beat up on the Bowties. I probably could have left it stock to get that done.
