nice picture of the G T O. I have a "to do jar " similar. I take a board game dart and throw it at the jar. deal with the Wife is what ever "job " is stuck to the dart when i pull it from the plastic jar is the one that gets done.. so far she hasn't figured out why the ticket doesn't stay on the dart when removed from side of jar << LOL

I wish I had one,,  '67 I believe..  The cookie jar is an important tool in my shop..  When my boy's wont let me work, I toss 2 cookies out of the shop and get a few minutes of free time..  That last statement was Bullsh!t... they come right back for more cookies..  who am I kidding????

Hell yeah...  When I put the hopped 400 in my "Old Blue"   I called it a 4442...     400/4BBL//4spd/dual exh.   that F'r was tough, and turned a lot of heads...

I pulled the 400 out after 2 years... It was too much..  I put the 350 back in, but i put the stock 400 cam in the 350 with new lifters.. it runs great and pulls good..  I use it locally..  I took the turbo 350 tranny out years ago, and put pedals and a saginaw granny gear 4 spd,..  I had the 400 with the 4 spd. and could burn the dual's with ease,  just couldnt drive it like a work truck..  :) and in the rain,  with that 400 I could spin every gear,  which meant I could,,,  wreck...  :)

another one of the  many positives of U-tube ; watching the drag racing of the '60's  :: tasca ford/ stone ;woods and cooke/ dyno don  and so many others. also listening to the sounds of someone shifting a quad.

Remember "wild willy" Bosch? I think that's how it's spelled, he WAS wild. Had the fake arm on the door so it looked like he was driving with one hand.
