Pro Touring show winner first time out. I posted a picture of my 64 ford falcon sprint about 5 months ago and it is now 95% done. Well here in Henderson/Las Vegas Nevada the Super Run Car Show ended this past weekend. There were over 1500 cars and it was quite an event with some of the most beautiful classic and other types of cars you could ever see. There were one hundred and fifty "Outstanding Vehicle" awards given out and I was one of them.
Below are some pics and videos one of which is the car going to get loaded in van after the show. Believe it or not I have not even personally driven the car yet. The flows/mufflers have not been installed nor is the car dialed in. I still need air cleaner set up cause the hood will not close. Also the accelarator pedal was "mickey moused" until we get a correct one. The night before the show the drive shaft was put in so it could at least drive.
The car is really loud and hearing it on the video does not do the sound justice. In fact, my mechanic cruised it Friday night and two car alarms went off. The motor is a 408 solid roller stroker built by "Bad Ass Racing" in Sonoma CA and puts out at lease 530hp and it will run in the 10's. This is not a crate motor. It also has coil overs, Heidts front end mustang II suspension, 4 link system and corvette disc breaks all around. Anyway, I'm really excited and I received numerous compliments.
