I won't bore you with why I haven't been on in a VERY long time. I'll just say that work has had me quite busy lately.

Anyway, I've recently been asked to build a strip car for the shop (it's a joint effort by the entire shop) by the boss. It's a '64 Falcon. We have several 302's, 289's and 351's sitting around in the shop.(it's great to say that isn't it??) He's not sure how to go but he wants a budget racer, I jsut don't have a budget yet. I figure the cheaper the better, though.

Any thoughts or ideas. I've thought about getting a wrecked Fox body and borrowing the wiring harness and computer, building the 351 to handle it, and blow the damn thing with a S-trim or something.

I like that idea. I like it alot. "Momma always said, 'Bigger is better, Forrest.' Momma was always smart."

Ok by. Later.
