Probably my 1971 Road Runner. 1967 440 engine. Purple cam, TRW 10:1 slugs. Nothing fancy. No heat, no AC, no carpet, no sound deadener, no back seat, no power brakes, one vacuum line, custom radiator. Full cage from firewall to back of trunk. Car was ridiculously reliable - drove it to work and back for 13 years. Only got more reliable when I switched it over to electronic ignition using Direct Connection parts.

Simpler times and it was a simple car. Pop the hood and all you had was engine and radiator. Battery was in the trunk between the cage rails. Horrible mileage, but it always started and always got me to work.
