I do prefer the look of the Slab Side, but if I do this build it will be the MKIII 427 Roadster. More room overall, from what I have read and heard from the dealer/shops.

I have three 289 on hand and can measure/photo whatever you need.

Seems like a match made in heaven.
OP prefers the slabside and the SPF slabside, after adjustments, has more leg room than the MKIII. And the SPF slabside is really gorgeous from the photos that have been posted.
One thing about the OP's size. There's a difference between 6'4" and 280 lbs versus 6'4" and 180 lbs. The width of the OP's upper body and the size of the OP's "mid-line" will make a difference too. |

I agree. Sounds like MarkIV has the right stuff to fit the OP's criteria!:cool:

But everyone that has seen this really appreciates how "clean" the Street style cars are without the sidepipes, roll bar, hood scoop, etc.
I snuck it around the streets in Atlantic City last weekend and it really got the looks.
A Coyote in the Street Car would be a fantastic setup. I almost put one in our car but wanted to put a little more traditional engine on the first one. Vintage Motorsports - 1965 Backdraft Racing RT3

This looks very nice. I might suggest you try to come up with a street dash layout and loose the Goodyear lettered tires to be more in keeping with a street roadster - but I applaud the effort. Should be a nice option for those looking for a street roadster model. |
