new kid on the block

I never thought I'd be able to swing it but if all goes well with my creative financing it looks like I'll be the proud owner of SPF # 1365 Titanium with Indigo blue stripes (new colors for this year)
After finishing LETSRCE (Joe Cloutier)'s SPF #1249 I got the bug. The coolest thing is my wife, after driving Joe's car insisted that we build one. It will be set up like Joe's car (with a few changes) the only big difference will be a fuel cell. The powerplant will be a dual quad, 483ci 427 Tunnel Port that was destined for my '64 Galaxie. I hope to see you all again on Saturday at breakfast

Mike,
You didn't forget about me did you?

I have been crazy busy lately (as you can imagine) but I have a whole game plan for dialing in your carbs! I will be at the Vintage car races at Sears Point on Sunday with Joe's Cobra. I'll be parked in the Nor-cal Shelby Car Corral. Hope to see you there!

Mike, try and make your engine water tight!

Please bring my bug screen with you tomorrow.

Joe, if you didn't bounce the motor off of the rev limiter every time you drove it, maybe it wouldn't have problems! I have an alternate solution to your ugly bug screen; drive backwards!
Your good buddy,
Mike

MIke & Joe - it was great to meet you yesterday at Goodguys. That engine is awesome! A true beast.
