History
I have owned this car for 21 years..It was brought up to Canada from a little old lady in Atlanta Georgia..It was in very nice original condition but a little tired...
1968 Ford coupe (diamond blue)

Modifications

Drivetrain
Car originally had the J code 230hp 302 and a 3 speed manual trans..I swapped in a hopped up 302 and 4 speed for a while and then installed its current 408 stroker motor..
408 consists of a scat rotating assembly
Premium capscrew I beam rods
KB forged pistons 10:7:1
Camshaft Innovations custom solid roller cam
Edelbrock vic jr heads and intake
Pro Systems Holley 950HP carb
Probe shaft mounted rockers
Hooker 6208 1 3/4 headers
Milodon 8 quart oil pan
Interior
Nothing fancy about the interior..Basic black vinyl with a factory console..I did install some autometer gauges in the top 3 pods to keep an eye on the engine vitals...An ancient Mallory tach sits on the steering column but will likely soon be replaced..
Exterior
I had the car repainted it's original diamond blue colour with a new black vinyl roof...I had intentions of making the car into a 68 1/2 Cobra Jet clone so I had the hood stripe painted on and added a hood scoop..The C stripes on the sides are painted on as well..
Audio
Am radio and tachometer..haha
Suspension
Stock suspension with CE three way adjustable shocks and slapper bars..
Wheel and Tire
Stock chrome styled steel wheels with 70 series BFG radials 225X70X14 rear,195X70X14 fronts..
