Projects 57 Ford GASSER, New Build.

The other day I had the pleasure of photographing a new build for a 57 Ford Gasser, for insurance appraisal purposes. I was so impressed I asked the owner for permission to show it on the HAMB, I think I also recruited a new member

1957 FORD 2-door. 429 Ford Cu.In. C-6 Auto. 9" Rear.

All new floor pans, rebuilt trunk with 68 Mustang gas tank.

Custom full length Ladder bars and beautifully installed straight tube axle.

The radias wheel wells are awesome and are fully boxed and rolled on the inner edge.
The fender well headers are not bad either.

I will let the pictures speak for them selves. Larry

 

Very nice!

 

Love it! Gotta be my favorite gasser body style.
Hopefully he will keep us posted on the build.

 

I like it, is that a big Lima under the hood?

 

Very Nice, Ford in Ford!

 

Nice.... 57 Fords are most definitely under rated!

 

VERY cool!!

Love this car! Fantastic job on the rear wheel radius.

 

Wow killer ride! Can't wait to see the progress

 

AWESOME! Hopefully he signs up so we can see more!

 

That car looks tougher than a two dollar steak.

 

The Owner Is one of the newest proud HAMB members hotroddonnie. Welcome aboard Don.

 

Can I have it when your done?

 

thunder road robert mitchum, cool build, ford out sold chevy in 57 !!!!!!!!!!!

 

Love the stance!

 

I'm digging it!

 

Hey that's pretty cool !

 

You lost me .WTF are you talking about?

 

This one pegged my "Cool as Shit O Meter" I'm In!!!

 

You nailed it Donnie .Love the bumper!

 

Thunder Road Robert Mitchum drove a souped up 57 ford. Little known fact that in 57 Ford outsold Chevy!

 

either way, we know with the ideas and the fabrication work that was done, when finished it is going to = one bad ass car!!

 

Well today's the day l get to tear my car apart, get it ready for paint. June 1 it goes in so l need to paint the frame and under side of floors. When it comes time to lift the body off, l hope l still have 5 friends

 

Don, I am there if I am available. I assume you worked things out with Mark? and where in the hell is your avatar????? Larry

 

Looks Great Donnie, quality build....... please check your ackerman though, in the 10th picture it looks like you are running rear steer spindles on backwards, getting that straightened out will sure help handling and prevent excessive tire wear when cornering (I may be completely wrong, it may just be the angle the picture was taken) . otherwise it looks awsome

 

Avatar bro!! LOL!! if you need a hand you know my number, I am going to pull my car out today and give it a wash and detail so it is clean for some pics and a appraisal this week, Larry, I will call you Monday about setting something up, not sure if you do weekend work or not.

 

Very cool.......I've always been lustful about that body style.

 

Look at these Ford factory Super Charged '57's. The Station Wagon had dual quads and they all ran real well. All were Y block 312's "tuned up by good mechanics too
