What cars have you owned?

Lol, my dad was a musician not a mechanic... after about 240,000k the 289 was shot, so he bought a motor and had it put in. I told him that was terrible..

It was done in 77, two years before I was born... so I had no say lmao

Wow that's alot of miles...I guess in 77 might not have known how valuable it was/would become. Oh well...what's done is done. Hope someone fixed it up right down the road.

You also have to remember, its just like a guitar... the old broadcasters/fender teles, were nothing special in the 70's. Same with those cars.

Yenko camaros.. same thing.. in the late 70's and 80's they were just a car that was once cool.

When we restored it, I found a numbers matching 289 block, and the intake, put it back to near original.

I know lol that's why it didn't feel right there's a company here in tx that makes em too. Of course it was a 67, gt 500 not a 66 gt350.

That same place will also make it with a gt500kr super snake engine. Fuel injected and all.

Well a real Eleanor is a 73 Mustang Mach 1 but that's only for those in the know
