    Me and my dad went down to high springs today for their 8th annual car show... maybe 40 cars there.... we were looking at a mustang with a 347 it was a fast back nice looking car then when we look up we see this yellow 72 maverick grabber pulling up. Not a bad looking car i just need a decent amount of work. rusty quarter a little dent on the lip of the hood. all stock except a little bit of a cam... good show but too many fords with chevy engines tho

    I have been seeing that more and more in Wisconsin too. A lot of Fords with Chevy powerplants. The funny thing I find about this is all big H.P. Chevy engines run Ford 9" rears....... Go figure:huh:

    yeah accoriding to all them bow tie lovers thats the only good thing ford ever built. And yet the think fords are junk.... that dosent make sinces if they are using ford parts. Me and my dad are thinking about buying a chevy truck to put a 302 and an 8" in it then take it to shows.

    A lot of Fords with Chevy powerplants.

    You will see alot of St Rods with 350's in them because they are a little shorter and people don't have to change their firewall.
