I read when Ford was building the Thunderbolt they kept the fiberglass components from going on the wrong car by writing "Race Car" in chalk on the inside of respective parts.

Although unconfirmed when I bought the car over 30 years ago the owner told me it was a pace car in the Indy 500 it wasn’t the reason I got her she was special the battery built in the trunk of the car confirms what he was saying but never pressed the issue. I just want to cruise the coast

Apparently our LB coach left for the Chargers. Please for the love of God let Mike Nolan come back.

Nolan needs to come back to New Orleans where he's had success and begin fresh on his resume. Our LB'ers under Nolan were pretty good. Just imagine if Kwon was here when Nolan was here and what they could have accomplished. He may have several other offers but he fits in well here.

I saw this and was wondering what the hell you were talking about. I had to do a search and found the reference to a 1954 Ford. I missed that. It was indeed a '55 Fairlane that my father had when he met my mother. I had been looking into '57 Fairlanes, as well as the '57 Chevy Bel Airs, because I was born in 1957. I had the 500 on my mind because that is what I had been seeing in my searches. My mistake. I would like the orange and white color scheme for the Fairlane just like Dad's, but have pretty much narrowed it down to the Bel Air, instead because the wife likes it better.
