This thing is a beast! It's too damn cold to get all into it right now, but the short drive around the neighborhood confirms it, 440 cubic inches in a 2900 pound car is going to be a lot of fun!

Here's a couple of pics to get started, many more to come -

It's cold today, so not really fair, but I did walk it sideways down the street with no real effort! LOL!

Cool side by side. Mustang looks pretty bulky in comparison

It's amazing when you see them together. The Scamp looks tiny, but barely fits in the damn garage. I measured them and the Scamp is a full 10" longer, but a lot narrower too, even though it feels much bigger inside than the Stang.

Dale, as soon as the weather is clear, she'll be out and about.

Not yet. Looking to get some rear suspension work done first, so I can fit bigger tires.

AWESOME car. I grew up for almost 20 years working with my dad on his 1969 Road Runner. Vitamin C orange baby!
