All Black-no stripes. Built in 98, engine and car completed spring of 99. 8000 miles. Engine is an NOS C7AE-A Sideoiler (block was thermal cleaned, platehoned and alignhoned-true decked to 90 degrees & rotating assembly was balanced). Steel crank (nitrated and micropolished) w/Lemans rods, Clevite bearings, ARP bolts and Venolia 10.25 to 1 pistons (runs on pump fuel). Ported Edelbrock aluminum cylinder heads (2.25 intake & 1.75 exhaust valves). Competition Cams solid roller camshaft w/.605 lift and .248 duration @.050. Speed Pro adjustable rocker arms.

2 shoulder harnesses
Stainless steel Quick Jacks and Rollbar

Superformance floor mats
15" wood steering wheel
Have extensive build sheets, dyno sheets and cyl. head airflow data on all engine work done at Competition Porting Service in Ohio from original engineer owner. Engine made 477 HP at 6000 rpms and 481 ft/lbs. torque at 4500 rpms. Also have 3 ring binder from original owner w/all receipts, articles etc.
Car is fully sorted (I am a Service Manager at a Ford dealer), runs very strong and cool. Sits, looks and sounds very authentic. Exterior and interior are as new (some rock chips from the parking lights down to the oil cooler mouth). Fanatical owner-one hour of cleaning for every two hours of driving. In rain once then cleaned undercarriage immediately. Only selling to purchase early 66 GT-350 which will be no where near as much fun as this car is.
You will not be disappointed. $54,000.
See pictures w/my profile. Will take more for the very serious.
Car is titled as a 67 Ford roadster w/Colorado collector plates

Thanks-
