Projects Watson style 58 Fairlane

I failed to mention that our altitude is generally 4000+, meaning at close to sea level, this puppy would probably run close to 12.50. Again, that's with the posi rear and lower gears. It now has a 3.50 dif....

 

Way too Kool, Love the Bonnie tail light treatment.

 

Nice

 

Fix the distributor and put it up for sale.

 

I think you're exactly correct. I'm going to install the door panels and rear seat. Maybe give the garnish moldings a quick green, maybe not, and list it. Probably go less than 10K. The distributor is really not a "fix", simply removing a screw that locks out the advance, and then retarding the spark back to normal. I will clean it up, maybe even wax the critter. The paint is very nice out in the sun.

 

That is one sweet looking Ford... too bad you have to sell it... love it!

 

Always liked 57 Fords, big and small. You've done a great job of making one look even better.

 

The Galaxie grille looks so right. Rounded hood corners are a nice touch.
