Brucie, looks great! I expect to see you driving THAT the next time you are up in Central PA..

 

Lookin' great Brucie! I'm so glad to see something happening with this car, and it should be a more comfortable driver than the coupe. I still say slam it!

 

Winfield still makes copies of those grills, very nice.

Ohh Brucie - a Chevy, and I thought we were friends

 

Bwahahahaha !!! Ya know we were all thinking that , lol !!

What radiator are ya using , Bruce ??

 

Went for the *Big Bucks*..........WALKER in there.......with a mechanical stainless steel five blade fan.........seems to cool it very adequately, even just sitting there idling....

sexy car!!...even though its powerd by a small block chevy...leave the hood closed ..

 

Should have been a factory option.

 

Thank you, Muttley.........

Everybody knows that I am real diehard flathead aficionado, but this car had already had a 283 installed back about 1961, from what I am told........ so the motor mounts and transmission adapter were already there......so I sold the old Vette motor and I had a nice 350 built fresh...... I built this car to be as they often were in the mid '50's when lots of guys installed the SBC into shoebox Fords........I know because I was there....... This engine will have a lot less stress pushing this heavy car along the highways.......I wanted cruisin' power......and this ought to give it to me.....

And, hey, guess what? My upholstery guy called me twice today to verify how I want several of the interior panels done........so I am sure he's working on them now that we almost had a real blowout about it........I think he got the message that I am now in a hurry....

Good to hear that your upholstery guy is comin' around . Can't wait to see the finished product .

 

I like it even better with the Chevy!

 

brucie -you build some sweet cars -first the coupay and now the vicky....

upholstery is worth more than "a lifetime friend"?
