I went for a ride in one with a 454CI (427 with a 428 crank) with 4 52mm weber carbs. My neck was snapped back in every gear. I the noise of the engine, wind in your hair and the smell of gas was intoxicating. I would love to win the lotto to get one of these aluminum bodied beasts.

Can't see a picture, but I imagine you're talking about a Shelby Cobra?

I remember reading an article about a Holman-Moody 64 thunderbolt they install one of a kind hemi heads on 427 FE block. The only reason the car didn't work out at the strip was that they were not able to hook up because the huge amount of torque outputted by the engine.

I saw the original Bullitt Mustang at the Fabulous Ford Forever show a few years back. A couple of pics I snapped. I recognized the license plate right away. Bullitt is one of my all time favorite movies because it had Steve McQueen, a hot mustang and even hotter Jackie Bisset (one of my crushes at 11yrs old)
