Yeah that's a nice car. Hopefully I'll get my 71 finished this year.

looks awesome! although i think you should run a 32 valve cobra motor, or something like that instead of the 2.3!

Well I've got a 98 Cobra DOHC 4.6 going in the Maverick so to do it in the Pinto...well I would try something a little easier. The 2.3 is a direct bolt in plus they can put out well over 400hp! The car is a 4cyl now and wanted to keep it that way just more HP.

Imagine backing one at high speed into the bedside of a mid 80' Chevy pickup with the side mount tanks !

Not the only Ford to get blamed for that. I dated a girl in high school whose Father wouldn't let her ride in the 65 Mustang because "those things blow up if you even get bumped"
Funny stuff, made funnier by the fact that he thought my Cougar was soooo much safer. Never mind the fact that it is a rebodied Mustang...
