HOW SWEET IT IS!!!!!!!!! Has it been ran before you got it? Is it a fresh motor? When are you going to be running it? Got to see it getty up. There goes the vacation. BE CAREFUL.

don't know when I'm going to run it yet, it's an older car and it needs a little updating to meet all the rules, nothing too major. The guys I bought it from have been racing it for over 20 years, but it has only seen the 1/8 mile, it runs about 6.2 in the eight so 1/4 around 10.2-.5. Not a totally fresh motor about 120 passes on it but the leak down test is about 1% so it may go anther 100 passes or so befor needing new rings and bearings.

Boy does it sound sweet can't wait to get her to the track.

JW,

Didn't know a 1972 Ford Aerostar 4x2 - new ride looked like that

Lets us know when you get it out, and if I'm free, we'll see you at the track.
