She's a monster in the making. I found her laid up in my dad's garage about 2 years ago sleeping due to a massive stroke my dad had. She's now awake and sports a 461c.i.BBC with nitrous backed by a TH 400 trans and a 9 in ford spins the 33x11 1/2x15 out back. It's all been built at home except for the narrowing of the rearend housing

you should post some interior pics

About the 9 inch, ford drive trains are tough enough, it's the body that leaves road debris

No the 10 bolt that was in it went BOOM!!! So, we put the 9 in to hold up the launches.
