I have a toploader imposter in my 58 Ford Custom behind an FE. Trans was from a late 70's van. I had no issues bolting it all together and did NOT...
Maybe someone already mentioned it and I missed it but the rear shackles look like they've been flipped. If so, just reverse them how they should...
I am a member but being I have a 58 I do more lurking than posting. Driving them is the fun part! I'd have a hard time getting back to wrenching...
Thanks Texas. The rake is just over 2". I've been following your build on the 57 fords forever sight, awesome work! Car looks fantastic.
[ATTACH] Here's my '58. I'm running an FE with a toploader overdrive.
I had a 47 for over 15 years. Had rebuilt stock front end, dropped spindles from fatman, relocated shocks, and disc brakes from ECI. It had a...
My son about a year ago practicing his shifting skills. He loves to go to daddy's clubhouse (aka. the garage) with me whenever he can. Just had...

Got my windshield and all door glass from Chris and am very satisfied. Easy to work with, packaging was great, quick turn around and the edge work...
I've got one...47 Plymouth
I'm no expert but would think those HP numbers are a bit high for the smaller flathead that you have. The big block flatheads would be a better...
I've got one to add. Flat 6 with dual carbs, split exhaust and an overdrive trans.
Not sure if you can see it - STR8 6
Well, I've been here for awhile now and even posted before my intro! I guess I was planning on doing it and didn't get around to until now. I...
I guess I'll keep the long thread moving. My 47 Plymouth Business Coupe. Straight 6 with split intake and exhaust. Just imagine the front...
Is that the same one that was posted on the MPLS craigslist? Another welcome from MN.
I've known about this site for many years. Heard about it from people at car shows and the P15 D24 forum. Never joined though, just lurked....
If you don't get the answer here, you should try the P15/D25 website. Just google P15 D24 and you should find it. They have a very good forum...
