Here are some better pictures of the new paint job (did it myself).

3/4 shot


Side view


Side/rear view - painted the ends of the wing black, which hopefully makes that ugly-@$$ wing look smaller.

Now that is a foxbody i would DIE for!

Looks great!! Nice shine

The white Fairlane is a 67 GTA owned by Ward's father. It was bought new by Ward's grandmother (my great Aunt). 59K original miles. Got a hunch that's it's not for sale. Ward has a red 66 of his own.

We fired it off today. Sounded pretty mean. Full Snake Jelly port job on the old A429's, Snake cam and my old Flying Toilet. The tune is very close. As close as we could get it when not at the track. It should run some good numbers. Throttle response is VERY good. Just blipping the throttle by hand would turn the shift lite on.

I want to say thank's to David C. AKA Auston Cole, for driveing 2 1/2 hr's to tune my car.I would not have got it up and going if it was not for him and my buddy Flop He's the big guy under the car in the pictures.I have no exp. with alcohol they had it running in no time.I spent the rest of the day cleaning up small stuff on the car should be ready to T&T this thursday.It sure does sound better with the port work from Blake and toilet.I'm excited!
The Fairlane is waiting on a brake booster.I can't rember my life with out that car. Even the old AM and dash clock still work.When I get bthe brakes fixed I'm going to put vintage air on it for my dad.
Thanks for all the postive comments I had got kind of bummed out working on the racecar without showing any real progress.That all went away today!

saw your post on DRR, what tuneup did you use?

38 NOZ. 90 Pill 32 deg. timeing. Correct me if this is wrong David.

pretty much the same as mine, the gold pump flows a tad less than the black................should be mean.

This is a steep learning curve for me .I'm just lucky to have david to help me out he ran this set up for yr's and has a good handle on it. I'm pretty much a spectater at this point. Seem's strange I have always done all of my own tuning. I'm in the watch and learn mode. How much power do you make Jon?

not sure, it makes a enough to push my turd to 5.72 @ 121, 9.01 @ 148 in the 1/4, 3000# deal.

Looking good Ward!! Nice work
