Nope , as when i got the car (not the car i wanted but the one my mom thought i should have) it came with the 292 Thunderbird special . I was the one that just had to make it better . I got that car in 62 in Sept. The car belonged to a little old maid school teacher here in town . i really did not like that car vary well since it had a automatic trans and power steering . It was white with a black top . The down side to owning it was where i lived and the mufflers on the car as it had dual Hollywoods . The town i lived in at the time had a Muffler ordnance , it was a speed trap and a truckers nightmare as it had it's own set of scales and with two U S highways and one state route coming into it there was a truck on the scales every hour of everyday . The one cop that worked night shift was my PITA , why i have no idea as i never did anything to tick him off and what was worse was the fact my dad was a Buckeye Bear . So i had best not do anything wrong in the traffic laws of the state as a traffic ticket would be nothing compared to what lay ahead at home . But old Harry was out to get me and would lay in wait for me and you could hear that old 292 coming from two miles out . so i had to try and make the house before he could get me and that meant never coming into town the same way . somehow i always made the drive and pull in and shut off the car and lay down on the seat and here he would come with the spotlight shinning it on the car and set at the end of the drive for a few min. It was a game i think with him . I had a company truck that i drove for work and my car sat till i was going out or to school. I worked for a large construction co. and when i got my drivers license the owner gave me a old 58 cheve pickup to drive till the summer of 63 then i got a new Ford one ton that was set up with everything you needed Old Harry would see me out at the fuel stop on the west end of town with the company truck getting gas and he would walk up to me a tell me that he was going to nab me someday in my loud car . and he did not care if my old man was a state cop or not , but he knew better then to try something while i was in the company truck. Only had the 56 for about one year and i found a 61 Ford rag top and bought it and started the build on it that took four months , as it was a 6 cylinder three on the tree when i bought it . When done it was a hand built 390 tri power with a four speed with ALL the goodies i could find at the time . This was a bare new block build with the vary best of everything 391 truck crank GT 40 rods 427 heads wolverine valves Custom built Crowler roller cam rockers and lifter and the biggie vary quiet MUFFLERS . OLD HARRY could not hear me coming home on a Friday or Saturday night.
