Did anyone see this. Wish they had not ruined a good Marauder. Seems like they could use a regular Ford or mercury.

That's a whole lotta work on a '65 Galaxie!

What I can't understand is all of these guys who 'Rest-mod' an old car with a 4.6L modular motor....:confused:

Why pick a w-i-d-e, heavy, complicated and yet puny 281 CID V8 to put between the fenders of a heavy car...:shake:
Those cars have to be dogs!

I'd prefer a 1965 Marauder body, but at least they didn't put a GM or MOPAR body on it.

Great looking ride and a big well done to the builders. This makes me rethink whether I want the Marauder with the 24 inch wheels and the pink interior.:rolleyes:

On the other side , why take a low mileage Galaxie and do this to it?
Car looks great though.

I like the motor swap.

The interior swap not so much.

And of course the tail light issue baffles me.

It says 400HP....I wonder how they did that with a stock looking NA engine....

Entire chassis and drivline swap! Prolly much like driving a Marauder. :cool:

Otherwise, I would have said COYOTE!

Agree on the meh, interior. Custom seats and modern gauges in the factory interior FTW.

And someone else caught the 400hp claim - umm, on a stock n/a?
