Synopsis
‘64 Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt
THE THUNDERBOLTS -- Ford went drag racing in 1964 with their new Fairlane and their NASCAR 427 engine. Talk about a ringer! The result was the most mind-boggling car the NHRA stock classes had ever seen. The factory claimed 406 horsepower, and even the Ford Engineers admitted this was difficult to do with a straight face.
Ford Mustang Shelby GT-350
SHELBY -- Carroll Shelby’s tenure with the Ford Motor Company was sometimes rocky, always exciting. One result of Shelby’s marriage with Ford was some of the most amazing cars, based on the Mustang platform, ever to wear Dearborn Blue. The GT-350 was a limited-edition road rocket. You might not be able to buy one, but Hertz would rent you one! Shelby’s GT-500KR was not for the faint of heart. It featured every performance option you could get from Ford, including the 428 Cobra Jet mill. By the way, “KR” stood for “King of the Road”.
