You gotta love a real 56' T- bird duking it out at the Summit Division 7 finals. Y Block and all.

Much nicer than the one from Indiana that used to come up to S.Michigan and street-race anyone for $50. That one looked like what we call a rat-rod today and cleaned everyone's clock. Those guys used to make $250 a night off us. It had a Lincoln engine with a Paxton. Damn that was a long time back!
