Happy 4/28 Day

Happy 428 day to all our FE owners!

Yeah, I wish I still owned one. Chuck

Woo Hoo! I made it a bit late to this thread, but I found it! I did celebrate with our 1969 Shelby GT500. Of all the cars I have owned, this is my all time favorite, although the 2020 Shelby GT500 is a very close 2nd. Nostalgia counts in my case. Otherwise, admittedly the 2020 would be my top car. They are all very cherished vehicles. Each for their own reason.

Did someone say happy 4/28 day. Just have to love the big blocks all day long.

When I was in my early teens, I saw a candy apple red 69 Mach 1 drive past my house. I thought that was the coolest car. I never owned one, but I knew that I wanted that body style.
The nice thing about celebrating the engines of yesteryear is you can do so everyday, twice a day, a minute at a time. Just watch the hands on the clock. You can celebrate most of the engine displacements from Ford, GM, and Mopar. One of my favorite times of the day is 4:29, lol

One of these days this SCJ will go into something (the ""false advertising" valve covers will be swapped to a 482).

Well, April 30th is also the celebration date of the venerable 289! 89th day of February!

289 Day, my favorite! Seriously, I've had a '66 GT-350 and a '65 K coupe, both were super fun cars. In fact, I'd even take a 289 slab-sided Cobra over the 427. I'm probably in the minority of people who'd prefer the small block over the big block Cobra.
