Somebody wanted to see the pics of the new 408. I had a friend of mine take a few pics at Car Craft this last month. He just sent them to me. I am truly not good at the internet yet so I hope this works.

Hey I met you at Car Craft. We were standing by the green 1970 Boss 302 by one of the gates. I was with my wife Laura - we're friends of Tony Hager.

Small world, eh? Just got done scrapin' some undercoat on my wife's car - looks a lot like yours except without all the nice paint and shiny stuff.

LOL no! Although sometimes we would like to. That is me holding the boy but it is one of my friends boys. He is actually the one dusting the front of the car off and I was just trying to keep him entertained.

The block is painted the old ford blue. Can't rememeber what brand . They are all a different shade it seems. I could check on what brand.

lauras70mach1 . Yea I remember talking to you guys. It was nice to meet you. Can't wait to see yours all done!

sooners2win, that's all the pics I have of it. I have to buy a digital camera some day. I have 4.11's in right now. It actually is a bit much. Great for racing but I might even be better off with 3.90's or so. You got any pics of your ride? Would love to see them

My wife's planning to go, but isn't 100 percent sure if she will. I'm sure she'll be checkin' your car out if she's there.
