Love it !! I remember going to the drag strip in Greer, SC and seeing a very similar Pinto wagon with a SBF and a Lenco.

Welcome Ace, a Ford guy and likes drag racing ! Glad to have a like-minded member.

I'd see how hard it is to pull one of the plug wires out of the head before I made that decision. There might be enough room to re-position the wires over the valve covers and hide the excess under the air cleaner. Any time I am doing something new, I Google pictures to see how it was from the factory.

For the magnesium finish I started with Tamiya XF-24 and added a little silver, a little gold, a little green, until it looked right to me. If you look at vintage photos of magnesium parts, there are many shades. I was going after a Dow #7 look.

Yeah, these cars changed constantly to keep up with the competition, you kinda have to pick a time and base your model on that period.

I used the body from the AMT 67 Mercury Comet Cyclone GT kit, the chassis from the Polar Lights Hawaiian funny car and the 427 SOHC from Texas 3D Customs

I added a Gofer 427 Ford, Speed City Resin wheels, slicks and seats. Painted Tamiya TS-20. Now I am going to build a matching 67 F350 ramptruch to haul it.
