Actually a '68 which was heavily modded and customized. It has some modded '65 side mirrors and a '67 scoop hood. It was shaved and debadged. 427 cu.in SBF. 5 speed TKO600. 4 link and 9" Ford rear. As you can see she is on bags

Dr_Pain That explains so much. LOL I initially thought 68 but the mirrors threw me off.
My dream is a 69 FB. Something about the scoops and the body lines that year just do it for me. There does happen to be a 69 Mach 1
in a barn up for auction near me, but I’m yet not at the stage of life to jump on it.
In high school I helped a friend restore his 67 coupe. Spent so many afternoons in that engine compartment wire wheeling the grease and paint to get down to bare metal. That barn and them junk cars we tinkered with kept me out of so much trouble. Good memories, thanks for making me get all nostalgic. -

She is one nasty piece of work!!! When I built the engine I selected a 619 lift (3/4 race cam if you are old school). She sounds mean and leaves a lot of dead treads on the road. Funny enough a few months ago this guy followed me for 20 minutes until I pulled in a gas station to put some gas and started approaching the car until he saw me unfolding from the car. He then introduced himself and told me he was a video producer and would love to hire my car for shoots LOL!!!

Dr_Pain a thing of beauty. One of my biggest regrets on car purchases, was not buying a 66 GT in the early 80s. While a young Marine in California, my sisters neighbor was a widow who no longer drove. She offered to sell me her husband’s garaged all original baby blue GT because she didn’t want her kids and grandkids fighting over it. I drove a 73 Gran Torino, which was my first car purchase out of High School. As much as I wanted the Mustang, the Marine Corps did not pay well enough to buy it. Oh how I wish that Mustang was in my garage right now.

The garden is staring to give up now, so I took advantage of some of the plants that are hanging on. I fried green tomatoes, okra, and egg plant with grilled pork chops on lump charcoal. The chops were dry rubbed with SPG, brown sugar and a touch of Chipotle powder. I also used a little mayo with mashed garlic to finish. We dined on our patio and enjoyed another great fall day. Great day to be alive.
GWG8541 that’s my kind of meal

Dr_Pain My brother in law had a 71 Mach 1, he would let me take it occasionally. That was back when speed limit was 55 and I looked at speedometer and I was doing 80 without even realizing it. I still give him grief for getting rid of that car.

GWG8541 Gran Torino!!! Yea I would say you missed out. Assuming it was a fastback??
Dr_Pain not a fastback, but still wish I could have bought it. Very low mileage and in pristine condition. My brother had a 67 fast back that was totalled when he was rear ended by a semi. He was OK, but not the pony he was riding. My Torino had the 351 Cleveland in it and it ran like a scalded dog for a stock vehicle. Kind of lucky I still have a drivers license after thinking about it. It was fast for a kid just out of HS.

Project for today to go with dinner German dark rye bread. Got a eye of the round injected with Pa’s Black Bull and Imitation bacon and vacuum sealed in the fridge for a couple of hours, going to sous vide it then sear it on the CharBroil grill.
