This is my brothers T/A that's been in storage for about ten years. This car was restored in the early 80s and went through the show car circuit for a few years. Eventually the motor spun a bearing and the car changed hands a few times. Somewhere along the way the motor was rebuilt before my brother got it. He drove it for a few years as the paint deteriorated and eventually fried the clutch at the track. It was running 12.9s on street tires. He parked the car in an enclosed trailer while he was in college, got married and had kids, and moved out of state for work. Since Ive just been finishing up my Cuda, my dad recently finished his 70 hemi Cuda convertible, and my other brother has started driving his restored 71 Cuda, my oldest brother has been lamenting the fact that he doesn't have his car running. He's coming in town for thanksgiving this year, so my dad and I thought it would be fun to pull it out and get it driveable for him as a surprise. The gas tank rusted through so we swapped that out today along with a few other odds and ends and she fired right up! Sounds great and even idles nicely. We're going to change all the fluids, swap the clutch, and then she'll be ready to roll!
