Really nice looking car! What a restoration!
Whats the difference in ride between a Ford BB and a Chevy BB?

A guy down the street from me just finished selling off his Shelby collection. He sold two 1967 GT350s, 1967 GT500, 1968 GT500, 1969 GT350 (all coupes) for a 2005 Ford GT and 2005 Z06. I have dated photographs of all cars but we do not talk for personal reasons.

Very nice car, and now when you go to your annual Shelby picnic there won't be anyone smirking at the site of a COPO.

Goodluck

[/ QUOTE ]The difference with FORD big Blocks usually is that FORD was not big in Performance Rear Gear Ratios. This car in particular has 3.00 One legger from the factory. so they can be sluggish from the start on Stock vehicles. They are full of Torque and have amazing Horsepower Potential. They still have a Huge Aftermarket following which is incredible considering the fact that These engines have not been made by FORD in 36 years! I am contemplating heavily on putting the 428 out of my old COBRA in here as That engine puts out close to 500HP on Pump gas and it's just sitting on a stand in the garage anyway.....! As for your neighbor, I'd be picking his trash if he lived down the street from me! Like him or not!!
