This one looks better than it did when it came out of the factory.
Can't understand why the restorer would put a 5.0 in this when the likely power plant was a 289 or 351 W. The 289 can be converted to a Hypo and the 351 swapped with the Cleveland if more power was what they wanted, or even a 390, 428 or 429 Thunder Jet to get some unreal power to the rear wheels.
The 5.0 does look good all stuffed neatly into that engine bay. A set of GT exhaust tips would have looked very good on this one.
