60 NASCAR HI-Po T-Bird

I also have a 60 352/360 Bird with 3 Sp manual, heavy duty suspension AND manual steering / brakes. It was built to 1960 NASCAR Grand Nat'l specs but never raced because the Ford teams went with the Starliner body in mid 60. The car was acquired from the Wilkes County NC Transportation Museum by Don Miller, President of Penske Racing South and partners with Rusty Wallace. Don supervised restoration and believes that when the teams went with the Starliner that this car was acquired by a NASCAR official with one foot in the moonshine trade and used as a low altitude, high speed delivery vehicle for Wilkesboro White Lightnin' through the hills of Norht Carolina. The 352 Hi-Po is one of the great engines of all time having won 15 NASCAR races in 1960. Great to read posts from folks who both know about and appreciate this engine. ED
