here is the most recent pic of my engine bay... 64 1/2 coupe 289 modified with Edelbrock performer RPM Heads, Cam, Intake manifold, 750 CFM Carb. other modifications include Cool Flex radiator hoses upper and lower, March performance pulley underdrive, power steer pump from a 93 5.0 mated to a TCP power rack and pinion steering. Tcp Coilover conversion, subframe connector assemby, SSBC power disc brakes. right now the transmisson is out of the car getting built up at JPT transmissons in Eaton Rapids Michigan. im getting a custom made torque converter with a 2,000 stall and changing out the rear gears from 3-1 aprox to 3.93 gears. here is a link to some info on the tranny rebuild: http://www.442.com/articles/philcolumn11.html
That is an impressive engine bay, but do you actually drive that car?

Looks like a shoot-out to me between JamesW and Snake, but they must both enter as modified in the MOCA show. Bring them both and let's see what the general public thinks. Your cars will be judged by other participants as well, so you will be judging other sections such as my 65 and a guy who has a 6 banger who comes in 2nd place every year because he never drives it. He stores it in an airplane hanger then takes it out for the MOCA show and washes it only. There is also another restomod that won last year, but he was judged in the classic driven section. I will be talking to the boss to get that car placed in the restomod section, and you guys will beat the **** out of him.
Well I posted a pic of the 69 Mach 351C earlier (see below):
Now here is the 67 390 GT BB, stock with holley 4160 carb, pertronix ignition and wires, accel cap, and k&n filter. This is still a work in progress as you can see:

Soaring, i made the EXACT same thread as this a couple months ago, it was stickied on the top of the forum, but i guess you took it off...
I knew it,, Someone find that thread and put it back up there,, this one is good, but that one was loaded.. It should have never been pulled off the top.. It was like my morning coffee...
