      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      It's chopped 2.5" straight down. The windshield is at the stock angle. The rear window has been laided down and flushed and is still the stock size. Windshield will be flush mount glass cut down to fit. Door glass still needs to be figured out. Probably going to use 69 door glass to eliminate the vent window. Door glass material will end up being acrylic

      Love the new pics. I have been researching glass for my chop and I think there are several glasses that have a good chance of fitting, Your idea of 69 glass is great also look at 90’s Eldorado 2 door it has a flat top also. I made a cardboard template and hit the local upull-it.

      His is actually out of a Maserati.... used the same engine.

      The engine cost 4 times more if it came out of a Ferrari (does have a 100 HP more) than what the Maserati engine goes for...

      "The F136, commonly known as Ferrari-Maserati engine, is a family of 90° V8 petrol engines jointly developed by Ferrari and Maserati[citation needed] and produced by Ferrari; these engines displace between 4.2 L and 4.7 L, and produce between 390 PS (287 kW; 385 hp) and to 605 PS (445 kW; 597 hp). All engines are naturally aspirated, incorporate dual overhead camshafts, variable valve timing, and four valves per cylinder.

      The architecture has been produced in various configurations for cars under those badges as well as for a single Alfa Romeo model. All three companies are owned by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, formerly Fiat S.p.A. under whom the engine sharing program was organized."


      Really nice work-

      What are looking at for engine management? I'm thinking the Megasquirt MS3PRO would be the ticket.

      I get it. I have a 430.


      Fiat owned Ferrari and Maserati when the engine was built - Sort of like the Bugatti motor... not really a VW or Audi, but owned by them.

      And holy crap, I am not a Ford guy, but love this build.

      Holy balls this is awesome! I'm digging the tail you put on it and I like the chop. Have you thought about running Ferrari wheels or something to hint at what's under the hood? Subscribed!

      I have to agree with Dan, I'm hoping this car gets a sick set of wheels that this build deserves

      I'd rather it have a Coyote power plant . But, the custom touches look pretty cool. I like the rear spoiler, and though I'm not usually a fan of chopped tops, you made it look good. Good luck going forward.
