    Hello everyone, my name is davey stephens and i found a 1962 ford fairlane 500 sports coupe sitting in the weeds with trees growing up around it. i couldn't get the door open or raise the hood at the time. I bought it not knowing anything about it. I got it home raised the hood it had a chrome air breather and underneath is a 4100 4 barrel carb. Long story short it has a 260 with 3c6 hipo heads dual point ignition with vacuum advance threaded oil galley plugs. I dont yet know if it has a solid lift cam. My question is could this be one of the first engines with the hipo heads? everything looks stock and not modified.
