my 65 fairlane a/fx straight axle build

Wayne;seems fair,out here in La La Land decent paint jobs START at $10,000 at the better shops!!!!! ROY.

 

Oh okay this Is a small rural area they guy who's painting it dose a lot of street rods and dose a really good job

 

Went ahead and cut the front fender I was scared if the front end lifts it might come down on the tires seeing how the are moved 4 inches forward

 

Just read through your thread-can't wait to see the finished paint!

 

Hey Wayne ... looking good.

Not to hyjack but I had a '64 C-dan follow me home today & it's got drag race on its mind!!





It matches my other '64 almost.

See you at the strip!!

Forgot to add this one

 

Wayne;nice looking work!! I can't believe how many cars have the trunk lip rust away!!!That had to be a lot of work!!! ROY.

 

Took 2 days

 

Wayne;any progress to report? Have you figured out your engine mounts? ROY.

 

Wayne
Looking good! Now hurry up Meridian race is getting closer every day.

 

Yeah Roy I made um they look great ..judd I wish I could get it down there

 

Wayne;sounds good,one more project finished!!!!! ROY.

 

Yup and a lot more to go ..hey were u at the California hot rod reunion

 

Wayne;I was at last years Reunion,went to the semi-finals in A/FX.I am entered in this years CHRR in A/FX,Oct.18-21. ROY.

 

I thought I saw u in the video ....hey quick question would my car run af/x or what class would I run

 

Wayne;go to You Tube,type in CHRR 2011,there are two videos of my Comet,one is from a Qualifying pass against Dale Snoke,the other is of my three runs!! We run an A/FX class out here,as the promoters only use one class designation.On the East Coast and Central US circuits they run Nostalgia Super Stock and A/FX is a class designation amongst their rules.I do not think you would be legal to run as I believe Fords have to run a FE based engine,no small blocks or 385 series combos. ROY.

 

I checked the vids ... WOW ... I'll see if I can get my '64 fairlane "worked" for this but not sure I'm right in the mix of completing an 25.4 tube chassis '64 fairlane.

Video looks like fun!!

PACO

 

That is a nice lane

 

paco;that will be one serious 64 Fairlane!!!! ROY.

 

Hey Roy sorry I was trying to make another post and sent it as a report on you by mistake ..lol. I was trying to tell u that I bought a brand new hilborn stack injection unit for my lane .I got if for 3800 with everything pump, lines, bypasses ,filters, shut off and a box of different sizes pills (jets). They say it is built and flow tested for my engine combination , but u know how that gose lol . My question to u is have u ever tuned one of these , Maby a few pointers.
