I asked Mike Everson to finish the detail work for me. I had surgery last July and I'm just not recovering as rapidly as I had been hoping. Mike is a good friend and an excellent builder, so I have every confidence that he'll de-bug it thoroughly. The 289 block means it's exempt in Massachusetts, although it is currently titled in Florida.

Here are a few questions that will help everyone out:
Was this build from the 289 USRRC kit?
Do you have the roll bar?
Are the wheels bolt on or pin drive?
Do you have any details on the engine rebuild?
What heads, what cam, what crank, what rods etc?
Thanks

Sorry for the delay in responding. I don't get out here as much as I should.

This build is a Factory Five FIA body and frame. I deleted the side vents and shaved off the hump on the trunk lid.
I have a driver side chrome roll bar and a set of cut down fat rollbars ready to install.
The wheels are 30 spoke bolt ons. They come with 3-bar spinners or hex centers depending on the look you want.
The engine is a '68 289 block that had a stock rebuild just before I bought it. I added TrickFlow aluminum heads, Ford E cam, roller rockers and dog-bone roller lifters. The bottom end is stock.

I'm very motivated to sell the car soon. I'm now looking for $30,000 or best offer. Call me at 978-six eight seven-7105 anytime.

Oldguy, Would you happen to have a video of the car? It looks sharp in a very subdued way. I am just not a stripe fan. I also like, from the looks of it, the reverse carb mount so as to not kink the throttle cable. If sold, thanks anyway... Super clean build.
