Projects SOHC Galaxie frame rolls

Post 302 looks like Rick's Starliner,if it is, he did sell it and a couple other cars. ROY.

 

This one used to be in colorado.

 

ERIC come out and play.

 

Ken,

Talk on the Denver streets, of a Red 64 Galaxie with a SOHC, too???

 

I'll try to re-energize this thread, and let you know my body mount kit, and 1/2^ fuel lines, and a box of misc hardware have arrived to tiny Elizabeth Co, as of late.

 

Here is the car that Mary showed a pic of when it was in my driveway. Scotty had a 64 427 Galaxie that I restored, Scotty sold it to Mikes Auto and its now out east.

SOHC 32' with EFI



The dark spot in grille was the corner of my garage that did not get PhotoShopped out. The sticker on windshield was from GoodGuys.

Does anyone here know Steve Schultz? He had a cammer powered Galaxie that I think was pictured earlier in the thread. He was from CO but moved to Az

 

Steve is who I bought my Galaxie from, in 83. I made mention of his 63 box top, in an earlier thread. I did see him at the Dick Brannon show in AZ a few years back.

Steve is a great guy, with a sence of humor, and an ability to find cool stuff. Last I heard, he is lurking around AZ.

Great looking 32, as well.
Eric

 

Yeah, He is a great guy! I bought/traded my current project from him, Its came a long way since then... He has not responded to my last couple emails so was wondering what became of him?

Traded Steve another truck for this one.




I will try to dig up some more Cammer pics

 

Timewarp. that is a great looking pick-up.
Tunnel wedge, or tunnel port?

 

BIG ol' bump to the top.... I had to change my shorts after viewing all these pictures..... Thanks guys!

 

Thanks!
Current engine is a Tunnel Wedge MR. Have owned a few TP engines and they really rock!

Current intake was NOS with NOS SOHC/Tunnel Port carbs (BT/BU's) but I sold them and bought a pair of Quick Fuels instead, came with a NOS air cleaner complete with NOS filter etc. I will be using the NOS air cleaner setup on this too as tried to sell the filter but offers for what a repop costs.

This engine is a Genesis block, CNC'd Edel Heads and 4.250 x 4.250.
I am expecting finished weight to be around 3500lbs or less so should scoot pretty well? Using a Cobra Jet C-6. I was thinking on starting a build thread on truck but not quite so sure where to put it...

I will dig up a few more pics of the EFI'd SOHC

What is your experience with FE cams from Cam Research? Had them do a custom grind solid roller to be a torque monster. Hope it works out ok... I have been told I could pick up 100hp with a better grind. Not sure I am buying that though.

 

That is a great set up Timewarp, Looks killer! I wish I knew about those carbs..... but oh well.
I do think traction is going to be a huge issue, but burnouts will be a kick in the pants!

Keep us posted on the build.

Deuces, this has been a good post, but I need to get some more done, and shown!
Thanks, Eric

 

Barn find in Canada

 

This car exist in British Columbia

 

is that a Falcon???

 

Yep !

 

Earlj302, put your hands on it, and get another Cammer on the road!

Thanks, for more insperation!
Eric

 

HOLEY, MOLEY, put that swing in my back yard!!!! I had one just like her, minus the wheels, heels, engine, hood, mountains, and about everything else!!!

 

Hey, I'll give $1500, no questions asked; and I can be up there in about 46 minutes to pick it up, (from Kansas, no less)!!

 

I sold em' kind of cheap too.

And something else to blow your SOHC's off. LOL





Posted the unphotoshopped pic for where the reflection in grill came from.
I had just pulled up from getting back from Goodguys.

I will post my best engine shot tomorrow....

 

Who, a 76 Ford truck,,,,,, Sorry, that 32 is great! I bet it's a handfull to drive, if you foot is a little heavy!!
I do like to truck, too!
Eric

 

Is this the cold shower page ?

 

Spooggie, between this, and the 64-65 Comet page, I must agree. Look at Kens 65 Comet Cammer project, if you want...... need to take the cold shower.

 

Yeah, The 76 Truck with a stroker FE. Sorry that ugly old Sohc got in the way!

I tried to get a better pic of truck by stepping back but tripped and fell and got this pic. Sorry, I will watch my step next time! The intake on the sohc was a super rare Weber for 58IDA's that was COMET lettered. So am sure you know what it was made for.. A one of only 2 or 3 ever built.

 

There were either rattlesnakes or alligators in the back seat of the 32'

Something for sure wrong with the Rumble seat as each and every time I gave someone a ride back there they came out white as a ghost and had a hard time speaking and when they did it was nothing but a stutter. I could never get them anywhere near the rumble seat again much rather than another QUICK jaunt around the block.

Never did figure it out!

 

I don't think I would be the first, to jump in the rumble seat, or a SOHC powered 32..... I'm pretty sure seeing your life flash in front of you, is very clear.

What a neat car, and super rare intake. Where did you find the intake?

Eric

 

Sneek preview

 

Sneak some more pictures up here, Ken. Your Comet looks great!
Eric

 

Sohc=boner

 

Deto, I must agree. SOHC dealer Butch in Cali, wants to have a SOHC get-together ib the near (and beer) future, and is thinking 75 to 80 SOHC powered cars would be kinds cool.... I will be there!
