I completed Lil Mo in April 2009 after 7 years of fun.
My goal was a 60's style Gasser that I can drive the crap out of at the drags, then hop back in and drive home. So far, it's just what I wanted. A 302 Ford V-8 with aluminum heads, custom 60's gasser headers and two 4-barrel carbs were mounted into the home-built frame.
A 5-speed trans goes to the Ford 9" rear with 3:90 gears. This little guy likes to lift the front wheels in 1st and 2nd gear! Makes for fun runs.
I drive it as much, and as far as possible. Guys here call it "badass", the women think it's "cute" so I guess it's just "Badass-Cute". I can live with that. Naturally, with all the blood, sweat and tears involved Mo is a 10 in my book, but I'd be happy if folks would at least consider him a solid "8"
