Pics of the "new wheels"

[greaseball]

Sorry I dunno how to "hang-up"
multiple images in one post,
But here's some pics of my "new" ranchero...

[Antibilly]

Nice ride my friend

[greaseball]

It's pretty much the same exact car
That germ posted pictures of awhile ago,
I'm thinking custom grill and shaved door handles,
and maybe frenched headlights?

[greaseball]

Oh, and DEFINATELY different taillights...

[haring]

Cool. I looked for a 57-59 out here in PA but only found rusted hulks -- too much work for right now. I wanted one to DRIVE and USE. They make great cars AND trucks. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

[saltflataddict]

great car, I wanted that. But whats wrong with Ford taillights? you dont get much cooler than those..

[Fat Hack]

Neat new ride, Grease! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I see from that first pic that it has it's own feedin' bowl already!!

Is it paper trained??? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Petejoe]

here, I lightened it some

[greaseball]

Hooligan-
They aren't STOCK ford taillights.
They are the custom lenses MOON sells-
And edsel wagon taillights look ALOT cooler!

Fat Hack-
Hahaha, I didn't notice that!
Those are actaully headlight rings from 57 fords...
A few don't fit right???
and I was trying to select the ones that did...

Nice ride, sits nice and low.

A HAMB'er had posted here or on their website some good instructions on how to french those lites. As I recall it didn't even involve any welding.

[saltflataddict]

didnt even notice that, see what happens when you assume. Yeah Edsel's would look cool. congrats great car...

[greaseball]

Mike-
On the drive home I kept waiting to hear scraping noises...
And until I FORGOT to listen,
They never came!

And the frenched headlights?
Yep, that was Abe!
Abe's a GREAT guy!
It's also posted in the "tech files" now too!

[slacker_53]

Cool ride!! '57s are all but gone around here. Makes me want to find one though.

Something about primer and old fords........ http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

If you wanna talk trade let me know I'll ship em back to ya.

Easy headlite trick; Remove the rims and replace with 1956 Ford F-100 chrome rims. I'm sure someone has a tech artical on it. Been doin it since 57!.......OLDBEET

[greaseball]

Old beet-
Thanks,

Dooley-
The pipes aren't working for ya anymore?
Thanks for the offer,
