context_page_description: Huayra Pronello Ford is an Argentine racing car built in 1969. It was designed by Heriberto Pronello for the official Ford Sports-Prototype team. The Huayra was powered by a five-liter Ford V8 producing 430 hp, with four Weber 48/48 IDF carburetors. Driven by Carlos Pascualini and future competitive Formula One driver Carlos Reutemann, it was the fastest car in both qualifying and race in nearly all of Argentina's Turismo Carretera races in 1969.
context_section_description: In 1996, Ricardo Zeziola began restoring one of the Halcón-Fords. The reconstructed car was shown in various exhibitions, and was awarded the Best Restoration prize in Autoclasica 1999. Due to this restoration's repercussion, more information about the other cars began to appear.
  In 2005, Mr Zeziola found the surviving Huayra in Córdoba, and began working on his second Pronello-Ford. Again, Pronello himself supervised and collaborated with Zeziola in the restoration of the Huayra.
