I've seen many many pictures of that car but never knew it still existed. I'l have to read more tomorrow as it is late but that car was built by the Wood Brothers and driven by David Pearson in the same era when he driving the Montego Gt for them in Grand National.
 
Nice find!!!  I'd love to have a closer look at that car in person some day.

I recall this car was auctioned a few years back. This car is also why I found out details on the Truxmore Torino

I have a bunch of pics of 72-79 Ford/Mercury Intermediate stock cars on my harddrive so rather than start a new thread, I'll just add them to this one.  Anyone else who has some, feel free to join in!
