My first car was a 65 Mustang fastback purchased in 1970 for $750. It went through several changes in the years I owned it. First thing was to make the single exhaust into duals, then after that wasn't enough, I put in a Boss 302 engine with the 1125 cfm inline 4 Barrel.
I eventually turned the car into drag racer with occasional street use.
In 1977 I went to Florida and found a nice 70 SS454 Chevelle that became my wife-to be's car. We still have it and luckily I never got rid of the original engine when I went the hotrod route with it and installed a hotter 454.
That engine still sits on a stand waiting for the day the car gets restored.
The Mustang pic is from 1978 while the engine pic is from 1975 in that car. The Chevelle pic is also from 1978.
