I am still trying to figure out how to add multiple pics. I can't figure out why they are small.

BTW these are the pics of the old man's weapon of choice. It is a 55 'Bird with an Edelbrock headed, carbed, cammed, poked and stroked 393 Windsor. It is backed up by a built AOD and a Dana 44 with 3.73 cogs. It exhales through Warlock Raptors exiting through the stock location in the rear fascia. It weighs around 2600 lbs and upon launch will introduce you to the seat back quickly.

Looks real good! I owned this '62 from 1995 to 1998. Unfortunately that was an economically bad time for me so I was forced to sell. It had only 42,000 miles on it when I bought it. Everything was original except the front seat covers.

NICE! There's a guy in town that has a 56 or 57 (can't remember). His is white. My wife's uncle had a 65 until the forest fires in California a couple years ago. He lost it and a Model T that belonged to her Grand parents.

Not sure as we haven't had it to the track or a dyno. I am sure the potential for 400 or so is there. Just need to fine tune the carb and the advance curve. The current tune is extremely conservative.

The Edelbrock components work well together. I doubt he would have had the same success attempting to mix and match, unless a professional was involved.

I can say this. He takes off easy-like and I am going for all I can to keep up. I run a 16.1 quarter.

I am trying to get him to take it to the Maxton Mile down in NC. So far, no dice. Aaron
