Default Kens Completed 89 IROC Build

Ok being I'm in a weird mood and looking at 1950s F100 Ford trucks. I figured I would show off my recent Disco Build. Blue 89 IROC 305, 5 Speed T top car. All Numbers matching , but with modern updates. She passed our strict California Smog laws with flying colors, and its a blast to drive.

Very sharp Ken! I miss my 84 Z28. Left it out there with you Californians when I traded it in on my 93 in Carlsbad when I was stationed on Pendleton. I think my 84 ended up in Mexico unfortunately. Every once in a while I run the vin to see if it ever came back, but no bueno. I'd love to do to my 84, what you did to your IROC.

That IROC came out beautiful. I always wanted to do one with an LS and full tuned suspension.

Looks like one of your typical well engineered projects. Can I ask the specifics of the modernization efforts? Is that still a tiny-bore 305 making those numbers? Thanks in advance...
