Not a 1UZ but still very cool IMHO

There is a barbeque restaurant around the corner from me that has an impromptu car show every Saturday night. Went buy this weekend and came accoss this highly unusual and unique car. 1st generation Thunderbird (1955-1957) with a 392cid (6.4 liter) Chrysler HEMI and heavy duty 4 speed manual tranny.

This guy has owned the TBird and the HEMI for over 30 years. Real nice work. Very cool car. Old school? Certainly. Cool? Unquestionably.

Great machine!

I would also go hard with the light weight and big Hemi motor.

VERY cool, i thought it might have had a toyota hemi style engine at first,
those cars would be rare as these days good to see it out and about
