I like it! What are the details on the motor? I have a friend that put an HO in his 68. It's not finished yet, but close. I would be frothing at the bit about now if my project was that far along!
Keep the posts coming, some of us Chevy guy's will reply. I've owned as many Fords as I have Chevy's. I think it's a cool project. Let us know how the week progresses.
I like the color choices also....

LOL !! I was just chain yankin guys I to have owned almost as many Chevys (8 Fbodies/3 Vettes ect.) as Fords not to mention the other stuff!! I have been at this for twoi years and its getting CLOSE! The engine is nothing special just a re-ring and an E cam,ARP head studs and the best ROL head gaskets. I hope with the boost low and a safe tune it will surive. I will get some more pics asap. Thanks.

Cheers! Looks like it'll be a kick to drive for sure. Even a little bit of boost goes a long way on a V8. Keep us posted.

Looks good. A notch stang was my first car (66). Looks like a little upper Rad hose and Intake tube fight going on, or is it just the pic?

Thanks again guys,6'9 no its not the pic it IS tight!! The lower hose will be even worse! Absolom,I am going to put the Heidts kit in my 69 FB but after all the tight fitting in this car I wish I had put it in this one.
