<span style="font-weight: bold">This is a car I had a few years ago. Made the non-stop round trip from Austin to Trenton, Oh to buy it (as a roller) and trailered it back in 42 hours.
The pic below is near completion much later. It was a track car and I was trying to get it back on the street. Ended up selling it later after a year and a half of work. It was built in the Trenton plant and lived there it's whole life, 17 years as a track only car. Chandlers Malibu made me think of it as we had the same horsepower rating. This motor was dyno'd at 704 bhp @ 622 ft. lbs. torque. </span> -427, bored .060 over to 439 -Eagle balanced 20/20 crank -TRW pistons-12.5:1-balanced -H beam rods-balanced -Comp Cams 294/595 -Merlin 345cc heads-rect ports-dual springs-stud girdles -Merlin 9.8" intake -Proform 950 carb -Powerglide (176) with Kevlar bands, hardened input shaft, and new servos that just came out -Narrowed Ford 9" rearend - spooled -Mosler 33 spline axles -488 gears -31x14.5" wheels -tubbed - rear halved -ladder bars -10 pt. cage -12 gallon fuel cell -dual batteries -MSD 7al -trans brake -air/electric shift -5 pt. harnesses <span style="font-weight: bold">This was the motor, just after completely stripped, vatted, and in process of rebuild. 427 4 bolt main 69 Vette motor, Merlin 345 heads, 294/595 Comp Cam, roller rockers, Eagle 20/20 internally balanced crank, gear drive, ALL ARP bolts-</span> <span style="font-weight: bold">Merlin Intake, Proform 950 carb, Moroso fabricated valve covers-</span>
