Henrik posted a link on the Yahoo Granada group today - his '77-1/2 Granada Sports Coupe with newly built 302 took a ride on the dyno. See (and hear) it here...

Here's a pic of the car, from his website. This is a good example of what's probably the rarest Granada. Ford did a mid-year revamp of the Sports Coupe, called it a '77-1/2. The paint and striping schemes are different, along with blackout moldings, Monarch taillights, and the opera window louvers - first seen on this model, BEFORE the ESS.
For newcomers, Henrik lives in Denmark. He bought this car on eBay in summer of '05 - it was a 69K mile Oklahoma car - and shipped it home to Denmark later that year. He's since pulled the engine and front suspension, rebuilt and refurbed everything, detailed the engine bay and the 302 is - well, a little stronger than it used to be.
Anybody wondering just how much tire you can get under the back of a Granada - here's an example. Those are 15x10 Magnums with 295/50/15 Radial T/As.
