Here's the 312 in my '57 Custom 300: [ATTACH] And the 292 in my old '60 F100: [ATTACH]
Pretty much every facebook group is rife with scammers, especially the t-shirt vendors that try to lure people in on the car groups. It's mind...
Should be fine. The problems arise when you mix pre-57 distributors with 57 and later carburetors.
Still have the dog, but not the truck. [ATTACH]
Wow. I've seen a video of the finished car, but never saw the before pics. Beautiful car.
Sounds like a good time! Long trips in old cars are always fun. Drove my '57 from Waterbury, Ct. to Columbus, Ohio some years ago. Wiper motor...
Great pics. When I lived in CT that was one show I always made sure to attend. Always a lot of nice vehicles there.
Great looking car!
Looking northwest out the big door. The farmland next door & behind is full of sunflowers this spring.[ATTACH]
Great looking car! Always nice to see a Lincoln y-block as well.
A few from over the years...
Bill just moved my old Ford from CT to Texas. He's the best there is! Very professional, and just a great guy to do business with. I would...
Incredible!
In 1955 the Naugatuck river, thanks to back-to-back hurricanes, flooded several towns along its length. See how the bricks on the first floor of...
A few shots in Waterbury CT after the flood of '55... [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Coming along real nice! Nothing like the look of a freshly redone dash.
Shot taken about 20 years ago in front of Castle Craig in Meriden, CT. [ATTACH]
That's a great looking car. Nice work!
My '57, going back together after paint. [ATTACH]
From your data plate it looks like the car is a Galaxie club sedan, 292, cruisomatic, colonial white, built in Twin Cities, not sure of the date...
We managed to make it to the Mansfield drive-in 6 times last summer. Three screens, and its always packed. They offer discounts for classic cars...
If you do go with a 59 harness, I think you might have to change the headlight switch to an earlier switch as well. It's another one-year-only deal.
Well that's one option. Or you could just scrounge up some rubber and fabricate a square grommet.
Nobody makes a new harness for a '60 f100. The harness changed after 59, and again I think in 61. The '60 harness, being a one-year deal, is just...
I used Intercity to ship a truck from CA to CT earlier this year. Their price for enclosed transport beat some other companies for open transport....
Thanks Moose, the wide whites definitely make a big difference. still undecided on the wheel color but am leaning toward black.
Could someone photoshop my truck? I'd like to see it with red wheels, wide whites & moon caps, then again with black wheels. Thanks!
I used Intercity Lines recently to ship a truck across the country. Their price for enclosed transport beat a lot of other's price for an open...
sold my '60 like a complete jerk, missed it, so I picked up this little beauty in Oakland.
That was awesome. Thanks for posting it.
