I love all the dime cars you come up with ! My question is what were you doing STUMBLING around a junkyard ?

I have sent more of these cars to their death in a demo derby than I care to recall...never thought to take one racing!

Billy, how about a dime rocket car lot? You could sell them as is or turnkey! Go Billy! You could do it!

I say go ahead if you want to try it...BTW...how are you doing with the other
"Rocket"...and are you taking it to the Dutch?

You got a trailer that will haul that "beast" safely?

I have been looking at mid 70s Torino/Montego combo for a few months. Now that Mr. Nees has put his approval on the motor, might have to find one, lighter than a LTD.

I've got a customer that has a yard full of cars. You may remember I posted a thread on the 427 S.O. he had in a boat. It was a time capsule 427/425 I arranged the buy for a friend of mine.
Old guy has several mid-70's (1974?) Ford LTD's or Torino's. All I know is they are complete and rust free Arizona cars. Probably at least $3000 give or take. If somebody is SERIOUS I can dig deeper. Cars are in AZ. If you don't realistically have the time or money to come and get them, please don't ask as I don't have time to crawl through his yard looking for ideas.
