Who says old American hotrods cant handle??? (VIDEO)

Well, usually I do. BUT not when its been race prepped for the nurburgring! Heres an old Ford Fairlane with a 427 stuffed in it attacking the green hell. Youve seen alot of Ring videos but probably not like this. Listen to it wind out to 7K and 160 MPH and imagine what a hand full it must have been!

it was actually 250-260, but thats KPH (germany) so yeah, around 160mph, still thats damn fast on a road course in ANY car, in a 45 year Ford family car with body-on-frame and solid rear axle thats down right terrifying

Ahh that makes much more sense, I assumed it was a british car from what the site you linked and a lot of the times they like to read in MPH. That is still ****ing fast, you're right!
