Great pics!  ("The Captain" always dressed for success.) Warbonnet was somethin' else!  I was there the year before the tornado took out the timing and scoring stand!

quick releases for brake pads

Are those 67 front calipers and rotors or the big Tbird's? They are in the shadow and I can't see those details, but those look like the small Mustang calipers?

I don't think the big calipers were legal until 68.

Well yes but the picture isn't dated. The small front calipers are the same design as the big Ford is and if you put them side by side the 67 caliper looks like a scaled down version of the "69 Lincoln/Tbird".

I always found it strange that the rules would attempt to limit your speed potential by limiting your braking ability? It just seems counter intuitive to me?

Picture is not dated however given the car does not have the 68 TA fender flairs it is a 67 configuration.

Phil, show us the TA headers you came up with?

Where did you get all these photos?  I have never seen them before.  Are they personal photos?  Were you there at these races?  If so, impressed.

Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

OMG! You never said that you had an entire Tunnel Port!  :o

SQUARE stubbie tubes? That's going in -00212? 2" primaries?


That has to be a Bud Moore?

That is positively sick! You might need some carbs. BC-BD 427's work great.

I only  have the headers and the heads / push rods and special lifters / these are not what they seem to be . 351 w heads with 312 rocker shaft conversion . ( borrowed photo) 

2 1/4 primaries  likely  bud moore   might be holman moody .

they were built for a 67 /68   so 00212 here we go
