Wasn't trying to be indecisive its just that...well Im undecided
I have several all original fords. The next two to do are this 63.5 fastback and a 64 Snowbird (1 of 6 so it will also be original)

I always think of building a Ford muscle car from something that been wrecked, blown motor and not numbers matching etc... Once I don't go original.... then I start thinking suspension, brakes, crate etc.
Then I look at an unmolested car and it just seem wrong :) Thats why I was thinking tri... and maybe just disc brakes. ....

I'll start reading through the resources on the board Im sure there are engine builders etc (anyone in Dallas?)

Well my latest build is a 1 owner (got the small 6" title)
1963.5 Gal fastback 390 ac car... built and delivered in Dallas Texas

Trying to figure out how to build it.
Originally I was going to really kinda go muscle but super low miles and all black (its my avatar)
Im now debating whether to keep it original (like my 62's, 65,66)

So if I do I tri-power the 390...... what is the real cost... Rebuild the motor (what to change out on a 63.5 motor...crank, rods etc etc to match the etc power/gas and the cost of the tri-power set up.

Is it worth the effort?
