Thanks, Mike! But, it's cooler than restored...

...it's unrestored! The last owner painted it, and that's about as restored as it got. I went through the engine but left it essentially unchanged. I did recently add a Blue Thunder PI intake and 3310 Holley, and it runs much better than with the Tri-Power. And the trans is not a Cruisomatic, it's a Fordomatic! Art Carr confirmed this when I spoke to him recently. This is the big cast-iron three-speed Fordomatic, which is very much like a cruiso, but it has some smaller internals, and only two drive ranges. Lo and Dr. It's, uh, fun to shift.
This thread, so far...
