The beneficiary of a professional rotisserie restoration that was conducted by Tom Argue Design of St. Petersburg Florida this substantial looking pro-tourer was originally conceived as a 2011 SEMA showcase vehicle. The project began with a complete dismantling of the car's solid body affixing that body to a large rotisserie and conducting some minor sheetmetal repairs. When that sheetmetal was shaped and virtually seamless priming and block sanding blazed a trail for lustrous Silver 2-stage an...d a Soft Gray roof. And after that 2-stage had been polished and wet-sanded to a mirror-like shine this nouveau pony emerged as a rich custom that champions classic style and world-class workmanship. Hoist the car's snug-fitting hood and you'll find a fully detailed 427 cubic inch small block V8 that thanks to Keith Craft Performance of Arkadelphia Arkansas creates 600 dyno-proven horsepower! Behind the snarling 427 a tough twin-disc clutch engages a Tremec TKO600 5-speed and proven Chassisworks FAB 9 axle. Like that rear end the car's already competent suspension was completely swapped for first class Chassisworks hardware. That hardware was augmented with power rack-and-pinion steering and reliable Air Ride Technologies shocks. Braking is equally class with body-matched Wilwood calipers squeezing four drilled and slotted rotors. There's a sturdy set of subframe connectors that ensure the engine doesn't outlive its shell. And everything rolls on custom DPE wheels which twist 255/40ZR18 BF Goodrich g-Force T/As in front of 295/35ZR19 BF Goodrich g-Force T/As. It's very rare to find a well-executed show car that's as impressive on the road as it is in the parking lot. If you're looking for a highly desirable classic that'll provide years of weekend fun and rack up more than its fair share of fans in the process this Ford is your multi-trick pony!
