Replace the front suspension with the Mustang II or Fat Man kit. Look in
any Mustang periodical. Cut the shock towers out and put a bad ass big
block in there! Pick up a 460 for cheap and build it up, or order it
directly from Ford Racing as a crate engine. A toploader, a 9" rear end,
traction bars, some wide sticky tires and spiffy wheels, reinforce the
frame, headers, an X-pipe, and some Ford truck mufflers. Leave the 289
emblems on and go hunting for some vettes! :-)
