1957 Ford Custom 2 Door

March 2, 2011   On the Streets!
 

This project started on August 3rd 2008.  After nearly 2 1/2 years, the car is now drivable.

I took the car to it's first car show last Saturday night.  Here you can see that the car is actually a deep red and not orange. It's a BMW/Porsche red and everyone loves the color.  As you can see, I haven't mounted the side mirror yet.

What a sleeper!  The CJ enhanced 390 is a bear.  The ratios in the T-10 with the 3.70 gears are perfect for driving around town.  Right rear tire smokes at will with no posi.  I can already tell that I will need a fan shroud.  No interior yet.  Waiting for more funds, but at least we are driving.
