The car has been in Oklahoma its entire life. My team members pulled the car out of a junk yard (McDaniel Salvage & Wrecker) where it had been for over thirty years. It had trees (large) in the engine compartment and trunk. They spent about a year building the car. Both are excellent car builders/fabricators. It has a stock internal 302 roller motor. Heads have had a little work and it runs a off the shelf COMP cams. It has a Ford Toploader close ratio 4-speed and a standard Ford 9" rear with gears dependent on the the track. Front suspension is Street or Track tubular arm coil overs. Rear suspension is OEM leafs and shocks. Nothing fancy really...
