68 Camaro w/351W

I went to a rod run this past weekend and saw this car. I am not really into crossbreeding cars but the way this car pissed off the offbrand guys was awesome. The sign on his dash said "When I grow up I want to be a Mustang". The 351 was a direct bolt in, he used chevelle motor mounts, and a 9inch out of a 68 Cougar which bolted right up also. This was also the first rod run that I saw another Gran Torino at. It was a 73 Formal roof, and I didnt take my 72 GTS, I had my 68 fastback Mustang out for the first time this year. We are supposed to meet up at a rodrun next Friday. I have pictures on my phone that I have downloaded to my memory card , but for some reason the computer cant see them. I will post them later after I talk to the at&t guy.

I finally got the pics of the 68 camaro downloaded. Thanks to my 14 yr. old daughter

  It is hard to turn one from the dark side of the force but this is a good start (remember it took Luke three movies to do it)  All the best to everyone  Conard

I figured out how to make the pics smaller so here they are again.

S....unrelated, but interesting...took a Lincoln Mark VIII to race...whoda thunk a stock (except for a Traction-Lok diff) 17-year-old car with 100K on the clock would be able to turn a 15.10 @ 94.5?

I WOULD!

hmm,I always wanted a 67 Camaro RS/SS cause my older brother that died had one for his first car.It had M50's on slots with skinny front runners and side pipes.built 350 4spd with line lock.had a rollbar as previous owner drag raced it with a bigblock.I fell in love with muscle cars because of that car.always get pissed when I see an old Ford hotrod and under the hood is a chevy motor.I should find a 67 Camaro and stuff my 351C in it.

I may try to get Troy to bring that car to Pigeon Forge with us. When I went to the Street Rod Show this year they gave away a 32 Ford with a 302 in it. I talked to the guy at the booth where it was and told him I liked seeing a Ford in a Ford. He told me the only reason people use Shovemes instead of Fords was because of the front sump on a Ford took too much work to make it fit in the old hot rods.
