Title: 1966 Ford Thunderbird Darlington pacecar
Post by: Michael F on December 22, 2024, 09:00:51 AM
I could not find any info on the 1966 Southern 500 pace car.

This is a ´what if´ pace car. Hope you like it :)

"What ifs" are always fun, because no one can say you are wrong. Very clean build.

Thats an awesome build, Michael. Wouldn't it be cool if someday you find a picture of the real car and it looks just like your build. I've always wanted to do a what if Chevy had not pulled out in 63 and Rex White had driven a 64 Impala with the mystery engine along with the other Chevy drivers of 1963 in 1964.
