Thanks Jack, actually the T power train has been down graded to a more powerful but sadly an unmentionable one
It does have front and rear Jag suspension with 4 wheel manual disc brakes, rack and pinion steering.
The 67 fastback is a 390/C6 car.
These are in my galleries.

Its actually not mine, its my uncles he taped the lights so they wouldnt break when he puttered around the yard with it!

His neighbour owned the car, and wouldnt sell it at all for the longest time. All of a sudden out of the blue he called up my uncle, told him that they were moving so my uncle could buy it, and sold it to him cheap!

My uncle is leaving a bunch of his stuff to me in his will when he passes on, so one day it will be mine. I am just trying to talk him into getting rid of it to me before then, so i can restore it (originally) and then he can enjoy it with me while hes alive!

Restoring it now and letting your uncle enjoy it is a good plan Sheldon, I love this Model A.
I`d almost swap him if had better tires!

He would never swap for something with a C@#$y engine in it Morris, give him some credit

It does have oodles of potential though doesnt it? A guy could easily hot rod it, or keep it original. If/when I ever get to restore it, Im going for original cause my uncle loves the original look, sound, and driveability of those old gals.
