Hi to everyone,new here

Hi,my name is Panos,was born in Greece but live in Sweden since 2005 with my family.Crazy with muscle cars since i can remember.I came across an F85(65 2door post) in quite bad shape (was sold new in Sweden)that i am trying to get in shape again.It was orig. a 330 manual but the previous owner put a 350(68 block with 72 heads) with a 2sp.ST300 tranny.I paint the car and now i ve got the engine out for a rebuilt,so many questions yet to come Once again HI to everyone.

Nice ride Panos. Like the flat black with those wheels looks great. Good luck with the engine build. Any questions ask away lots of talent here.

Hey panos,
First let me say welcome, and wow! That is one AWESOME looking car man!
And by the look of the pics of it when you got it, you are quite the craftsman. Congrats on a very nice car man.

For the engine, if the heads are #8 heads, then I believe that they would be from a 1973-1976 engine. 1972 heads would be marked as 7A.
