that car is almost identical to one that used to be up the road from my place, ... you certainly heard it getting around:P..


only thing the one here was nowhere near as clean as that, ......... was obviously built as a copy cat type thing, right down to the stock rear mufler with bottom cut out .no idea what engine he was running in it.. would have been pretty wild though

So you are talking about Garry Blacks Mrk11. It had a 460 with a glide behind it. Never did much with it. I think it's still sitting in his garage up on stands.

My brother has a '68 440 that well... only the shell is the original component, driven by a highly customized 4AGZE toyota engine and a customized truck intercooler running 30PSI+ boost! It is freakin insano. Even tho it's not ford driven it's still a beatuiful sight!
