First off, only 3 people on planet Earth have ever seen a 427 SOHC
I just found out that Im one of three people(I've seen three of them) AND a Hemi owner..and proud of it! I must be truely special!
Next you're gonna tell me you've seen the elusive dinosaur!!!
There are two cars with the 427 SOHC in my area that I see. One is a 63 Galaxy that is done right as it looks like it came from the factory with it as the guy did a nice job with it. The other is an old hot rod as it looks to be about a 34 or so Ford with the Cammer. Let me tell you I was surprised to see that Cammer in that hot rod as thats the first time I have ever seen one in a hot rod and it got alot of attention. They did run strong when running right. Don Nicholsons Maverick in the 70 to 73 Era of Pro Stock could run with any of them when they had that cammer running right and not breaking parts. You gotta remember its a hemi with overhead cams. Here is a pic of the eng in the 63 Galaxy. Ron
Very cool car.
I used to work at MAS (Midwest Auto Specialties) back in the mid-'80s. Anyone rememeber them? They always had the full page ads in Hot Rod selling fiberglass hoods, scoops, and front ends. Anyway, the owner/boss Gary had a T-Bucket with a Ford Cammer in it. It just sat there for years in the showroom/front of store on Hennipen Avenue in Minneapolis collecting dust. So I guess I'm one of the three that has seen one in person. I wonder where it is now.
