The hope is more than a glimmer. Slow process but it is happening.

Well, they finally made it. They look great! Although, I had 3 come in with rear window issues. I hope to have that sorted out soon. The right rear corners were not installed properly.

It looks like a '68-'70 Torino with a 1971 Mach 1 Mustang hood on it?

It has a 351 Cleveland V8 I assume in the 1:1 car?

Those were made about 10 minutes from my house.

Unfortunately Ford in Cleveland took down the Foundry which is no longer and one of the other engine plants are slated to be taken down too.

An end of an era.

I had my Dad, Grand Father and Uncles worked there over the years producing various engines.

I got to go to the engine plant open houses with my Dad many times to see how these engines were built.

I saw one at our club race last night. It didn't get any track time. It really does look like a Torino.

if I am correct the tooling for our Cleveland went back to USA after cars in Australia where no longer available with them our 351 block had thicker webbing at the crank area & Hot Rod magazine actually done an article about them called Southern Fried Ford ( meaning from the Southern Hemisphere ) & explained the difference between the Australian & US blocks & why Ford running in NASCAR actually used the Australian block , good article & don't worry they did look like Torino's
