Very nice...What suspension mods have you done ???

That would look great blasting around the Red Rock loop....heh heh heh

Are you thinking of auto-x or a track day @ Pahrump when you get it sorted ???

Welcome to the site, that's a beautiful car you've got there! What's the specs on the drivetrain and suspension?

The motor is a 260, opps I mean 408 professionally bult stroker and not a crate motor. I was told it will put out between 530-550hp. It has a baby c-6 manual valve body, 9inch rear end with posi and racing axels. 4 link system with coil overs, heidts mustang 2 front end suspension, boyd coddington rims with 225 in front and 245 in rear. It also has 12 inch hedits corvette disc brakes in back and 11inch in front. Sub frame connectors, vintage air, 10:4 compression, flaming river steering wheel with haneline gauges. Comp cam 282int and 286esh with duration @.050 242/248. A fuel technology carb and roller/soldi comp cams 838lbs.

That's all I can think of right now? Oh yea, BMW seats I picked up at the junk yard 2, for fifty bucks. Hope this helps. Thank You for all the nice comments. One more thing, any suggestions for a personalized liscense plate? :usa:

That is a sweet Falcon!!

Thank you and it looks like Ford/Mercury people are the minority around here. I do have a 71 mercury comet gt that's being restored as well. I will have pictures later.
