I love all the Ford powered vehicles drag racing, & it's really nice to see more than just the Mustangs! Congratulations to him for getting it accomplished,& hats off to you for making this video, so all the fans can see this awesome wagon race! Thumbsup to you both! Fast Fords Forever!❤😎👍
Great Job Evan. Tim is the glue that holds the Coyote Stock together. Wonderful class everyone is friends. My favorite class of all time. Jim @ HO Fibertrends
Evan you did it again. Another awesome coverage of a Ford that gets it done with Ford power. If your next coverage , is a ‘70 Maverick, ‘67 Cougar, 73-79 F100, ‘78 Mercury Zephyr, or a ‘94 Ranger, you have covered all the cars I have owned, enjoyed, & raced in my lifetime. Keep up the good work.
Love everything about this car and the owner, cool just cool!! I used to "push a broom" (while going to college) at the Ford X car garage about the time the new Fox mustang was coming out, they had Fairmount's running around with 302's in them and 5 speeds, and I was like wow! cool! what is that? Well it was the development mules for the 79 Mustang, oh they also had Pintos running around with the 2.3 turbos in them, and everybody wanted to drive the 2.3 turbo Pinto, I was guessing it was making a fair amount of boost it seemed to be fairly quick for the time!
They actually had Fairmonts with 302s and 4-speed manuals. Four doors (and I am guessing wagons as well), not just the Futuras. Now, 140hp is not moving too much, but when we moved from Chicago to L.A. in 1979, my dad use of a '79 Fairmont 4-door as his company car, and ended up buying it from the company when they issued new company cars. It was automatic, and California-smog equipment (I believe they were rated at 130hp) and fairly peppy. Yes, very malaise era, but peppy-ish. When I got the car in the later-80s as a hand-me-down, I could take on many a car (from the era) including Celicas, Supras, 300Z's. One day, a LTD LX 5.0 humbled me, and then the 5.0 Mustangs started getting much more popular and had no problem showing me their taillights. Of course, by the late 80s, I had my sights set on swapping engines from a wrecked Mustang, but when I went to look at the car, cops were at the house. It turned out the guy had killed a pedestrian outside a party following a fight and he was trying to unload his Mustang for cheap (I don't recall the price, but it was too good to be true, and close to my house, so I went to see it pretty quickly ('yea, it runs and can still be driven' I recall in the conversation with the driver), so I took it as an omen to not desire an engine swap. A couple months later, circa 1989, I owned my own 1986 5.0/5-speed Capri trade-in which I bought from a Ford dealer.
Thanks it brings back a memory from early 80s. We opened up a bargain news on payday and found a granada 4dr with a low mileage 351w in it and it was the legged tire roaster from hell. We had no money to put in it except for tires and an acceptable exhaust at least by standards.i know it doesn't compare but we sure had a lotta fun for a few years driving around in a similar brick shaped car. Now I'm trying to get the money up to build my 72 torino wagon 351c with a c6.
My folks bought a new 1980 Fairmont wagon when I was in high school. 200 six and C3 three speed auto. As much as I tried, it could not get even close to a wheel stand. The Fairmont replaced a 75 Mercury Montego wagon with a 351M that suffered a probable broken timing chain or broken distributor shaft/oil pump lock-up that I may or may not have been partially responsible…. The Fairmont was hard to kill and I’m glad to see them, especially the wagons showing up running updates Ford power instead of LS.
Revan Evan,i'm subscribed because of vids like this...Engines REVVVVING ! Please continue,and "Thanks" for including what high RPM's the car is being wound to (the higher the better).
I have been in love with drag wagons since Arnie Beswick's Pontiac Tempest The Grocery Getter. What a cool car! And a cool owner. Thanks for sharing this little Gem with us! Cheers from Motown!
This is crazy. I’m building a 1981 Fairmont Futura. The bumpers are mint, I just watched this and ran out to check mine. They are chrome plated aluminum! I never knew it lol. Thanks.
My dad had a mercury zephyr. I told him if he was gonna get rid if it.... Id buy it. Bastage gave to the scrap guy. No rust.... Interior was decent. Perfect car fir something like this
Me too Jim! I have a built 460 in my 67 Mustang Gt and it is so heavy up front. Depending on the cost of a Coyote like this, Would love to try this swap and run this class.
I saw you on SLEEPERDUDE’s channel brought me here. I’m back in the Ford camp as of September 1st I purchased a 97 Thunderbird lx 4.6. I previously owned a 74 and 77 Thunderbirds My first car was a 1973 Mercury Montego GT 351-C with FMX transmission and 3.00 gears factory equal loc differential.
Come on bro imma gear jammer your gear and your gear jammer all the way this is your life you knew was the coolest thing in the world wagons have been cool since the sixties all respect.
My parents had a burgundy 78 fairmont wagon. 6 cylinder. Wasn’t fast. I drove it twice. No license and with license. Me and my friends called it the grocery getter lol 😂 😅🤣🤣. I think ours had maybe 85 horsepower
How much aftermarket can you do to the coyote because I heard him say he had headers if not much at all can I interchange all generations of the coyote and 5.2 intake
So, if these 5.0 Coyotes run so good then why does everyone use a GM LS instead on buildups??? I never see these engines used in anything but factory rigs.
Coyotes are more expensive to buy, more expensive to build, are way bigger physically. And I think a lot of people like the idea of a pushrod single cam American V8. I have a 4.6 2v sn95 and will hopefully coyote swap one day. Never owned a Chevy

Thanks Robert.
Tim is an awesome guy and a Mustang genius! His work is top notch!
That car is TOP NOTCH. Extremely well done, unique, and just a load of fun. Great wheelies. :D
If Ford offered a wagon to the US with a Coyote and a 10 speed or tr3160 500hp best wagon ever
Great Job Evan. Tim is the glue that holds the Coyote Stock together. Wonderful class everyone is friends. My favorite class of all time. Jim @ HO Fibertrends

67’ Cougar dream car
@@CoyoteFTW yes my first car. Maroon with a black vinyl top, parchment interior, 289 4V, cruisonatic trans
That thing is perfect in every way I love it
Owned a 79 Zephyr Wagon with 302. It was fat at the time with a test pipe in place of the catalytic converter. Brings back memories.
Thanks
Always loved station wagons.

That's what drag racing should be!!!!!

Another colorful character having fun at the drag strip. Really nice guy. Thanks Evan for your commitment to bringing us these videos.
Thanks for giving my man Timmy D some love Evan. Love that dude and love your channel too!!
Love the surfboard on top! Great sense of humor. How would you like to look over at a car beating you and see a surfboard on the roof rack? 🤣
"Hey guys! Revan Evan here with a wax figure of Tim Donathen"
Seriously though, bad ass Fairmont!
That’s a really cool and unique combo 👍🏼

Yes sir J C, I was thinking the very same thing!!!
This is crazy. I’m building a 1981 Fairmont Futura. The bumpers are mint, I just watched this and ran out to check mine. They are chrome plated aluminum! I never knew it lol. Thanks.

I was wondering if anyone would catch that.
Need to 10 spline it
Come on bro imma gear jammer your gear and your gear jammer all the way this is your life you knew was the coolest thing in the world wagons have been cool since the sixties all respect.
Its the fau wood dash that makes these wheelies legit.
Awesome car. Nice and simple. Wonder if he short shifts it on purpose?
Hmm. Nice build.
Guy has an old 79 Capri and a Fairmount collecting tree sap just down the road from me.
Another good Video Evan!
Thank Dan

Shagging Wagon.

9.85 flying wagon
Tub and backhalf. Would look killer with big tires and wheelie bars.
that is a very cool car
I saw this car at Norwalk raceway park I couple months ago
Sounds like big Angry motorcycle engine. Enough to scare the faint of heart into hiding under a blanket in bed. lol
The surfboard on top, the hula girl on the dash, and that number plate, it’s not cool it’s sub zero.
surfs up🙃
Cool car 🚗 😎 👌
another cool video!
Love your videos.i bleed blue..keep up good work.
Thank you Shane.
Love it, with a roof rack and a surfboard, crush it!

There's a lot to like about this car. For me, the best part is the hula girl ;-)
Yeeeeessss yeeeeessss 😅
I got a Fairmont wagon. 4 speed, 2300, manual rack and brakes!
My parents had a burgundy 78 fairmont wagon. 6 cylinder. Wasn’t fast. I drove it twice. No license and with license. Me and my friends called it the grocery getter lol 😂 😅🤣🤣. I think ours had maybe 85 horsepower
Oooh Yeah!...
una belleza
How much aftermarket can you do to the coyote because I heard him say he had headers if not much at all can I interchange all generations of the coyote and 5.2 intake
I thought the Ford Futura was really nice 👍
Wonder why GM don't have a stock 5.3 class?? 🤣🤣🤣
They do, its called Chevrolet Performance Stock, and its run in the NMCA.
@@dsaitz ...I'm talking about a 5.3, not a hopped up factory 376ci 🤣
..it would be boring to be that slow!😅😅😅
@@ramonmunoz9271 lol
Vous êtes enfin passer en 4 roues motrice ou pas
Stock engine doesn't mean much these days when we have sub $100k cars that make 500-700 from the factory.
What size rear tires/ wheels?
Is that weight on the floor, around the bottom of the cage?
OPERATION MOCKINGBIRD
If only it was "Pastel Beige".
what transmission do they run
LS what?
So, if these 5.0 Coyotes run so good then why does everyone use a GM LS instead on buildups??? I never see these engines used in anything but factory rigs.

People being going fast n/a with coyotes for a long time now. They are just poor.
Coyotes are more expensive to buy, more expensive to build, are way bigger physically. And I think a lot of people like the idea of a pushrod single cam American V8. I have a 4.6 2v sn95 and will hopefully coyote swap one day. Never owned a Chevy
