My 65 was surprisingly agile tho it had to have been heavy.

I had reversed the lid on the air cleaner which allowed more air in. It had the coolest roar when you floored it and heard that rocket V-8 sucking in the air.

Oh, hell yeah. The sound of that 455 was awesome. Did you ever look at the suspension on that thing?

Brother just finished building a 427 Cobra kit car. From Canada I think. Fired it up got some small distance and it swallowed a paper filter that shouldn’t have been there.
Required a complete engine rebuild. Expeensive!
