Old-School Bitchin’! This 8-Second Ford Coupe Is The Runner In The Night They Sang About!


Old-School Bitchin’! This 8-Second Ford Coupe Is The Runner In The Night They Sang About!

This is the original recipe, right here: take one Ford coupe, stuff as much motor as you can in between the radiator and the firewall, figure out how to keep everything else together, and make sure there’s enough room inside the car for your big brass ones…you will need those for the moment you get brave enough to hit the long pedal. This is the car your granddaddy dreamt of, the car that made it’s way into movie stardom and musical lore, the one that, along with the 1957 Chevy, came to epitomize hot rodding in America. So, of course you can leave it to the Australians to take a good thing and run with it, with the front left tire hanging in the air for a better part of the quarter-mile. This is indeed the car of many dreams…as simple a concept as a ten-pound hammer and just as effective when used properly against the opposition!
