There's a few fords I wouldn't mind owning though ... like a 1969 Ford Fairlane 428 Cobra Jet :D

2 years agao I had cash in hand to buy an 89 Stang off a guy . It had a 355 in it ... and was all set up for drag racing . I missed the deal by about 15 minutes ... once again it was a guy that my dad knows that bought the car . :grr: :mad:

If you're not too far your dad's buddies should head out to out drag track in milan wich is about an hour from the bridge. I ride at the mx track and the drag strip is a couple hundred yards away and its sweet hearing pure muscle car run down the strip

That's not a cart ... it's a drag sled . Custom built chassis all out of aluminum ... I wish I'd have taken some side pics ... this thing was amazing .
