Some "Dime Rockets" for the 4TH!

[Joe Toller]

Its a Caprice, instead of the Impala, if that helps.

A used car place in town has a 74? (has the extended bumpers) Maverick for sale, anyone interested I can give you his number. I Also have some pics. Since I don't know much about the Fords I'm guessing this could be a dime rocket with the 6 or 302?

I really don't care, just thought someone might be interested in the car.

Comes with a 8.8 and a posi.
Almost all Mustang parts will fit.
If I had the extra $4-5 grand and time we would build one in a second.
We probably have enough spare parts to get one under the index without touching the motor.

It's a snowy day in the hills of Pennsylvania so I thought that I would refresh some memories and bring this favorite of Alex's back to the top. It still really needs to be built!

Dang, one of these 85s got crushed here about a month ago. I used parts off of it to fix and flip an 89 I got cheap...

I just want to get down the track, and eventually under the index. To do it in something nobody else runs is extra incentive for me.

It's odd to me that the 78 is 300lbs lighter in shipping weight than the 77 or 79, maybe an error?

WOW! Could it be that someone in the "Ivory Tower" is reading Classracer?!?
Noooo...... it can't be. A real Racer must have brought it to someones attention.
Especially a super popular combo like that!
Or maybe it was just on the "to do" list for 40 years.

Hmmm...wonder how that happened...
