1978 Fiesta
Long a Fiesta fan, this is Jim's project car design for his 1978 Fiesta. It includes Panasport 13" wheels, upgraded suspension, Cibie lights, front air dam and rear spoiler, European grille and headlights and Recaro seats.
Project Cars
In 2001, Jim was given a 65 Falcon 4-dr and, thinking that the project might be more interesting on it, reworked the 2-dr design for the 4-dr.
Both of these images have been in magazines recently, the red Falcon in Popular Hot Rodding, and the white Falcon in Hot Rod.

1968 Ranchero
This project is for another of Jim's cars. Externally, the Ranchero has Torq-Thrust wheels, a 2-way tailgate modified from a wagon, and a front air dam with driving lights. Underneath, the rear suspension is replaced with an 89 T'bird IRS and relocated fuel tank, upgraded front suspension, 302, and some other technical innovations.1960 Falcon
This is a project car design for the 1960 Falcon, now a basket-case, that Jim drove to college. It retains a stock appearance, except for the wheel areas, and would be mechanically contemporary. The wheel areas and lower body aero pieces are inspired by European road racing.1978 Fiesta ©2000
