The M-335 was originallybuilt to meet the NASCAR requirements of 100 production vehicles tobe NASCAR legal. Ford contracted Bill Stroppe of Long Beach, Ca. to build 100 Lincoln 368 cu. in. engines with 335 hp for the 2 door Mercury's. After meeting the requirements the engine was outlawed, but not before Tim Flock and the Meyers Brothers posted wins. This actual vehicle was owned and restored by NASCAR legendDon Miller former President of Penske Racing. The restoration took place over 3 years at Miller Racing Shop in N.C.
