I entered it in a car show and won third place. It's a 1968 Ford Fairlane Cobra, 428 c.i. Super Cobra Jet engine, Ford Toploader 4 Speed, 9" Detroit Locker Rear end, factory stock air conditioning, factory stock tachometer, factory stock clock.
Everything works on this beautiful car, although the price of gas, I can barely start the damn thing, much less drive it.

Here's a picture of the 1969 Ford Fairlane Cobra I'm fixing to buy in the next couple of days for a few of thousand dollars.



I want to restore it to it's former factory stock glory.


Although, as you can tell, I'm partial to Fords, the early Chevy Bel Airs were a fine car, especially the 1957 Chevy Bel Air.



These were always my favorite Chevy's growing up.
