if i was to sell it ,it prob wouldn't be with this engine and box prob put the originals back in as i don't think they would effect the value of the car as much as they are worth on their own.

part of me keeps sayin sell it and other says don't!!!

i'm going try sell it at the end of the year,,half done a deal with charlie if i decide to.

and god knows what i'd get..prob a lot less then its cost!

Your 30-130 acceleration times will be up there with the best of them surely? Amazing car, I like a lot. You should let Jimbo show you how to drive it though.

Aside from the price, what would you build/want to build next? Is there anything ford that can be better? spaceframed ford GT maybe?


Fecking awesome car, hope to see it at time atack! If not, I think it's worth a trip up to see it at the hill!!
