WOW, just, wow. I feel so bad for that car, it was probably a nice 390 car to start with. The suspension is a mess, whats with that stance if you're NOT going to add four wheel drive ? The hood doesn't close ? The trunk lid is crooked ? I would have to think the builder is embarrassed. If they aren't, they should be. when I looked, the bids were 49K something. Icertainly wouldn't pay you anything CLOSE to that for such a poor job. And whats the fascination with Coyote power ? A Cleveland, and FE, and a Lima can ALL make as much power or more, and they all fit an early Stang a heckuva lot easier ! Expalin Coyote fever, please. LSG
Besides not having the ultra modern, cutting edge 1960 Falcon design suspension, coveted by nearly every auto maker, what is wrong with the suspension on this car?

When I bought my MTF M2 front end, Rich was puzzled why I didn't want the Coyote setup instead of the 351W. I told him I loved the old school iron ( Dart block 427 stroker) and lope of a hot cam and 550-600hp and great torque, and I didn't trust anything with 3 foot long timing chains. I guess I am old school.
