That's great work. It came out better than the Original. For doing an OE rebuild, I like it.

Beautiful car. I love Fox body Saleens.
Reading his story, it turns out ALL women are the same when it comes to buying a car that needs restoration. They don't have any foresight at all of the potential of a car.

Great story...... I love how he drove it back that far. To think that some cars are built for the purpose of doing the power tours/long distance driving, that break down more often then this old worn out 302!!! Blown Head gasket and still made it home another 1,000 miles. That's the difference between FORD TOUGH & " Like a Rock " on the side of the freeway. ![[Embarrassed]](redface.gif)
