Some nice stuff here fellas. Nice seeing others cool rides, builds or in progress builds. I myself don't have anything cool or unique. I'm just happy my junk starts in the morning to go to work lol

Same here. My daily works reliably. That's about it.
Seeing everyone else's stuff though gives me a bit of motivation to bring my old Ford home.

 

[I saw a lot]

That's a sweet ole Ford!

Thanks, not too worried about it. No takers we will just put a few $$ in it and get it running the way it should (brakes and carb).

Ahh, nice ''little'' power plant.
At least I still recognized the GM influence. Been quite awhile since I've been under the hood of an old school Caddy.

You guys are reminding me of younger days with rumpitty-thump big block cars, drag racing on country roads, new rear tires every month and insurance premiums so high you hardly had enough money left over to drink. Anyone who said speed and alcohol don't go together, didn't know what they were talking about. It went together every time. I think I'm lucky to have survived.

I can't think of anything more thrilling than sitting behind a big block.
It's an experience in a class all by itself.

Yes it was. Take-offs were pretty violent.

No replacement for displacement.

I like big cubes.

Buddy from North Carolina just had this restored. I believe it was his grandfather's truck. Way nicer than anything i own. Except for my @p61 western 288xp. LOL

Little more progress. I got the accessories all mounted up now and I put the headers on just for chits and giggles. I managed to get the car pulled out and in the middle of the shop and up on stands. I was hoping to start pulling the old 350TPI out today but I just lost ambition. Hopefully I can do that tomorrow.
