I like the old FE bigblocks. Chevy guys for some reason think there dogs, and boat anchors. I have seen and driven the evidence that you can turn a FE into one street screamin, quarter mile tearing, Vette eating street machine.
The 67 Fairlane that my friend owns that me and Tim are always working on is just awesome.
Oh man, everytime I hear that car, and ride in it, I just cant help but sit there and get goose bumps and smile for hours.
It even gets so bad I make Camming noises while sitting in restraunts on cruise nights, or walking in the mall or what ever. 390 cubic inches can go along way.
Some of the old FE were awesome in stock form. 428 Stangs, 427 Fairlanes, 406's, Thunderbolt
, AC Cobras, Oh man...My next classic has got to be a bigblock car. I'm debating on building a 58-60 T-bird, or a Fairlane like my friends, or if I get lucky enough to find an bigblock 67-70 Mustang. I'm thinking of the future here. After I get my 2000 GT paid off.
I think a rip roarin low to mid 12 second 58-60 T-Bird with a built up 390 or 428 would kick a$$. I can just imagine it now. The sound, the smell, the camming.
It would have to be RED though.
