would be a beautiful car to stick a bbf in and run all motor, especially with some weld magnums (hoola hoops).

There was a guy that ran one in Michigan in the mid 90's and ran in NMCA Pro Street (back when it was all Tony Christian & Pat Musi). I know I saw at at US131 Dragway, I think at Stanton also. I'll have to dig for pics, but it was a hot car-heck it was off the showroom floor at the time! I have no idea what happened to it...

The old man just picked one up from Boca Raton with 27,000 miles...creampuff. Gorgeous ride. $7500 shipped.

Pissed me off.

Gene Deputy had an all-tube Mk VIII with twin turbos and it ran great, the same one that was in the photo.

Yep. Strongest production block (teksid) Ford ever made. Well it was really made by Ferrari but who's counting. -Mark

If it was made by Ferrari everyone would be calling it the Ferrari block, but it was made by Teksid, an aluminum casting company in Italy who happens to also have another Italian customer that builds red cars.
