    I have the opportunity to get a '52 Crosley wagon. Would like to see what others have done with one of these. Thanks!

    A '47 Crosley in the "Car Crafts" Little Books of March 1959.
    This one runs a 1955 Ford 292 Y-Block.

    I like that sedan with the Buick Straight Eight!

    I saw this Hot Shot in Street Rodder . I think it's probably better to link it than C&P. Still, to give an idea, I think this flathead looks right at home under the hood.

    Do you guys know how obscenely rare original Crosley HotShots are?

    There is a guy in marmouth ND, his dad ran a crosley Dealership, he has a all original SuperHotShot with like no miles on it, and on top of that an Original Factory Replacement SuperHotShot Motor laying in the original Crosley Crate for it..

    i think they only made like 150ish total hotshots.
