how about the thing in my avatar as a first car....1952 ford panel truck my dad has had since he was 18 years old...hes restored it twice the first time he put a bone stock 351 windsor in it....only thing done to that engine was a little bigger of a cam, a good 750, and headers...made that truck go a 13.5@100 all day long...4 or 5 years ago we restored it for the second time...he chopped 4 inches out of the roof this time and has a full cage but now it has a 390 big block in it...i love it
