Dave,I dont blame you for saving it..It needs to be built the way it was/should be,period style gasser..With a bit of luck,there will be a bit of a resurgence of this style..We have three tri 5s down here now,one of them being Golly Adams old 56 that he built when he lived in California,a friends BBC 55 in Auckland,and another 55 that was built and finished early this year,and even if there are about three million tri 5s in the country now.
...these three stand out from the rest,cos they are GASSERS...

Still think a FORD power plant would bring grins to thousands of onlookers!

That would be Project X.. It's still alive and well and recently had yet another rebuild... Don't think it was ever a straight axle car, though. It's very nicely done now!!! Originally Posted by 1gary
