I had my NAF 427SC for 15 years, 12 or them with a 496, bored and stroked 454 Chevy, and I loved that car! I caught a whole lot of static from the blue oval guys, but there sure weren't many of them that wanted to try me at the strip! Can't tell you how many "finally, one done right" or similar comments I got over the years. After totaling it, for the second time, last September, I decided I'd pushed my luck far enough, let my insurance company keep the car and purchased a sweet ERA 289FIA with a 347, Weber equiped SBF. Great handling, stopping, and riding car. Excellent quality, fit and finish, engineering, and faithful to originals recreation. BUT, I sure do miss that "world's coming to an end" kick in the patootie I used to get from my old sweetheart. Congratulations on doing well on your sale.
