Default GT 500 E pictures

Here are some photos of my latest build. The car has a supercharged 5.4 32 valve modular with a 125 shot of NOS. I think I may be the first to put this in a 67. Tremec TKO 600. Accel Gen 7 DFI engine control. MSD DIS 4 spark module. Mustang II front suspension. Piaa lights, Aeromotive A 1000 return fuel system, Scat Pro Car seats, custom dash, Pioneer DVD with custom sound system. And many other custom features.

it was probably for that exact reason....its easy (or easier) to drop a big block carb engine in....but the guy wanted a challenge im sure...which explains the modular engine....breaking new ground.

Sure the big blocks and small blocks would be a snap to install, a modular supercharged 5.4 32 valve is a huge engine. I think its probly the biggest gas engine Ford makes. The heads are about a foot wide each. I guess when I seen the movie, as a Mustang lover, I was awed by the beauty of "Eleanor". I told myself someday I would have to build one. I wanted it to be special. I was trying to be the first to build this engine/car combo. I have done other restorations, but by far this has been the most fun (and difficult). Sure it was a chore to do but I think the end result was worth it.
