vehicles I'd like to own.

I used to have a red 66 Fairlane GT. It was a nice car and got a lot of attention, good and bad.
The 390 was swapped out for a really strong Cleavland motor. It was too much motor for the car. It was way too fast for the brakes and handling. I had repetitive nightmares about wrecking and killing myself in it.
I still have that motor, one day I will find the right car for it.

Also a couple of old trucks with big blocks and a slew of cool bikes. Everyone of them were FAST.....

I had 7 Ford Capris but 2 stick in the mind a 1.6 sport done to fast road spec and a 2.0 sport.
But never a 2.8 Injection
The last version was the 280 Brooklands limited edition but they are like hens teeth.
I had 2 mates that put the Rover V8 3.5 In Capris more power and a much lighter engine those things would fly!

:agree2:

I used to love those 2.8 injections. I still see a mint example every now and again.

Head ported , Valves re-profiled, Intake done, Exhaust, Injection pressure upped, Suspension and brakes were uprated bear in mind they were only 1000KG

Apart from the over powered power steering!
I had a A bracket on the back of 2 of mine and the handling was great.
The 16 Sport had lowered uprated rear leafs Spax shoks all round, Twin anti roll bars and the front suspension geometry was changed I moved the wheels forward and the strut tops moved closer together

the 66 & 67 fairlane--and the 40 ford--to me are timeless classics
