The OHC6 was a “Cosworth Design”? I assume he’s thinking of later engine programs like the Cosworth Vega?
The comment regarding how Carroll Shelby got around a “big cube in a small car” edict with the GT350……… First, this was corporate policy at GM, maybe not so formal at Ford? But more importantly……the GT350 was still 289ci, a “small” motor at 306hp……350 did not mean engine size The historical reference to “350” was the difference in feet between Shelby buildings (a storytelling for another time)
Jesus Christ, Jay- that poor book
In the back corner of my shop is a 389 out of a wrecked GTO with 20,000 original miles. I bought it in the early 80's for $100 😎
Looks like a generator to me !!!!
150 miles i bet it was on a trailer to jay
Gee…thats a swell looking car.
A friend of mine bought a yellow one (convertable) brand new in '64. It had no seat belts and was scary fast.
My first car was a '55 Pontiac 2 door coup with the post.
The LeMans and Tempests had a V8 version as well. The Grand Prix was also a very fast car.
