Anyone that knows me knows I'm a massive fan of Chris Ashton and his builds from Ruffian Cars. This is the 3rd build we've shot with Chris and truly one of the most exceptional purpose built vehicles I've ever experienced. Full race chassis, powered by a Shelby 526 cubic inch FE engine with a dogbox transmission and every single inch of this build is to have a semi streetable fully capable big track car so sit back and enjoy the ride...

Thanks a lot for sharing not only your experience of driving such machines but also for the spreading of the word thru the stories of regular people, just like you and I, that contains so much knowledge and truth. I am digging the long format; the new 3D intro is “all right“. Word to the wise: at 44m30s, your crew makes a right turn without a full stop. Edit that off; it can be “incriminating”. 🤔👊🏽❤️‍🔥

Damn thats cool. I'm actually old enough to remember seeing these race in England back in the day. By the time I was about 6 or 7 they'd all but vanished in favour of the lighter Mustang but there were still a few racing. I used to go and watch the racing with a friend of my father, his son was a huge soccer fan and would go to soccer matches with my dad, I was into cars and hated soccer so would go watch the racing with him. lol But I'll never forget my first encounter with a Galaxie, we were standing near the pit wall up close to the track, it was the 70's what can I say, when a Galaxie came thundering out onto the track, The sound the smell, everything was just incredible. Love them ever since.

Chris's art in high school was breathtaking. He was a thoroughly decent kid with amazing talent. Most of the automotive stuff is over my head but I love to watch the videos to listen to our genius kid talk about his work. We knew he would do well.😘
