These are very cool cars. A proper, large, RWD, muscle car. I used to race against one at the drag strip often. NP

Bone stock it ran 18.8 seconds. Out of the supposedly 130hp the motor made, a dyno tune on a basically stock motor (just a short ram intake) showed 98hp at the wheels.

But it is only 2018, how can this be 2,400 years old?

Second dumbest thing I’ve done to my car?

We need a technocracy!

As someone who used to purchase steel for prototype use in electronics fixturing, it was expensive as hell to begin with 3 years ago. Granted I was buying tool steels, not sheet.

Wait, these are Eagle cars? I always assumed when I saw them on the road that they were an early 90's Hyundai or Kia...

This is horrifying. What did this person do in life to deserve a hell like that?

I very well could have but was not entirely thinking. Also hedging my bets that MAYBE that aluminum runs into the 200lb range when you take into account the rivets. But who knows.

I thought the idea of sullying the Mach 1 name had been dropped. Ungh... ANOTHER call to Ford this evening it is....

Not really, just didn’t need b33g33 thinking I was insinuating their SO was 400+

Its aluminum sheet. The entire set of box fenders cant come in at more than 100-150lbs. A fat girlfriend/boyfriend would weigh the car down more than those fenders.

Despite the negative responses, man, Nathan you did an amazing job. The sheer amount of work that was put into the hood and fenders is incredible.

You don’t know what you had till its gone.... I still have my stock Analog Gauges in storage.

You misinterpret me entirely sir. I am not commenting negatively due to a perception that it is a plebeian car. I am simply attempting to make a humorous anecdote utilizing a single word stated by a previous commentor.

After much searching, I have found the pinnacle of hood scoops. I present to the gathered Jalops....

Ahh. I know that feeling. My vert sat for 5 years with a dead cylinder. Just gave up working on it. Then one day, when selling a coupe I had, I made an offhanded remark to the buyers (my cousin and his half brother) about the Vert and was told it was the engine harness. A call to wiring specialties, $300, and a…

Still on my bucket list of cars to own. Although it needs a manual swap and the SC300 trim. If I’m buying a Soarer, it best be an inline 6. 

Thank you!
