After sellin the ol 52 pickem up f1 ford I traveled out to a suburb of L.A to pick up this 50 fleetline... it has a 57 235 6 cyl in it 3 on the tree and seems to run alright.. I took off the l78 tires and threw on some 14s for now and added some 3 inch blocks from chev's of 40s on her with some tri bar caps. I have the visor for it but mising the center and side hardware. This was a purchase off the hamb and could not be any happier with the types of people that are on here... Future list is going to include a chev v8, t 5 trans and tri 5 chevy rear end.
Thanks.. for now I think I am just going to put the visor on,buff out the white walls and cruise it while I accumulate the v8/open drive line stuff... Figured if I had to get me a family ride it had to be a fleetline only.. fix this one up and sell it to get a 47 or earlier fleetline.. (my unicorn car)
