Thanks for the link. A friend had one way back when with a 302. I thought to my self: Self that would make a great sleeper.

Cool project. I like the other posters comment about them being "the poor man's mustang". They really are; you seem to always see the fairmonts in my area in the classifieds for like $300-$400.

300-400 bucks man u cant go wrong, the 5.0 stuff is simple to squeeze in. And the lower weight makes them rock. Mine still has the bench seat and all!
