What the h_ll do I have? Roadster pick up

I have been offered way over 10 grand for the engine. Moneys not every thing.It needs to be in this truck.

damn man, you get it. killer score and welcome to the HAMB...you're gonna fit in just fine i think

 

The Cragars should set it off real nice, what does it have for an interior? Glad to hear your not selling the engine...man I wish I had a Boss 429!!

 

Boss 429s are great.. when they're all together and running.

Killer score man. You asked what you have, and that is a******in early 70s custom street rod.

 

What are you gonna do with that in the cave? try and get blown?

 

If you properly inflate the tires, you can improve the gas mileage.

 

i think a set of dull (as cast) halibrands would look just right on it myself.
personally, the super trick wheels scream 1980 to me.

 

I have a set of magnesiun front spindle mounts and a set of 15 x 10 magnesium old styles.But they are going on a 65 fastback mustang with a straight axle and a Ford 427 cammer engine.
Thanks Jack in Ga

 

It has a 66 Cheby vette rear now. This may be a little cooler.What you think?

You now get my vote for the most despicable man of the year, a Boss and a Cammer?

Pardon me, I'm going to put on some hockey equipment and go play in traffic...............a Cammer and a Boss.........(shaking head while wandering into traffic)

 

Damn.........well just***** me to tears. Looks like you scored more than Madonna on Prom night . Killer time capsule.

("mumble....mumble..... All I ever find is rusted out K-cars...mumble")

 

Honestly I restore 69/70 mustangs and if you have the vin off the block $30k would be more in line to the poor guy with the car if it still exists. even without a match your in the 20k range.

 

Jack is no new comer in the high performance FORD circle. He knows exacly what he has and has had, whether it be a Boss 429 , 302 SOHC hipo 289 , rare 302 Tunnel port stuff etc. of the 60's and 70's . He has been involved in hipo Ford stuff for years and always comes up with cool stuff . I think it is the pre muscle car stuff that is new to him. Welcome to the HAMB Jack

Thanks Dave.
You are correct. I know nothing about 1960 and older. But I tell you I can learn fast on this site. It is great just looking at the rides on here.
Great to be here.
Thanks
