This Ford packs the punch of a modern race car with a 466 CID V8
with Twin Paxton Superchargers and methanol injection.The sonic
blue and pearl white paint job, chrome accents, and large tail fins
bring back memories of cruise nights and drive-in movies. All
together, the engine is putting out 700 horsepower. Getting all of
that power to the rear wheels is a custom-built Turbo 400, with
manual valve body and gear vender overdrive. The drive train was
also upgraded to handle what this beast can put out, as it's
equipped with 4-wheel disc brakes, Hydro brake booster, Ford 9"
rear end with 355 gears, ladder bars, and coil over. As for the
interior, it is stock with upgraded materials, so it remains true
to its roots, while still feeling comfortable and modern. The
tinted glass is new, which provides an aura of mystery to the
outside world as to who is behind the wheel of this behemoth.
Mounted in the dash are AutoMeter gauges, including a tachometer
with shift light, so no one short-shifts and takes away any of the
power. Making the vehicle even more user-friendly is a tilting
Ididit steering column, so it can be adjusted to driver liking. All
in all, this is one tough beast that is truly a sight to see. This
vehicle is located in our Milwaukee showroom. You can view this
