Finished-- Two 4++yr builds
It's been awhile since I've posted. I sold my '33 Vicky and Cobra and bought a nearly finished(no drive train, interior etc., body work, frame/suspension mostly done) '55 Chevy project and finally finished my '48 Anglia.
The Chevy is powered by a 383 stroker, Engine dynoed @ 425 hp, Muncie M-21 4-spd w/ Hurst T-shifter, 4:11 posi 12 bolt. I built it like a late '60's-70's build. Hooker long tube headers w/electric dumps, Flowmasters w/2 1/2 exhaust, traction bars. Tuck/roll black seats w/bluesilver accent for head liners, door panels, etc. Paint is Corvette Mid-nite blue metallic w/ Cadillac Light Mist pearl blue top and back end.

Still sorting out some "bugs" in the Anglia, some electrical, some mechanical...It's powered by a built 351 Windsor, dynoed at close to 500hp backed by a race-prepped C-6 auto, 9"narrowed 4:11posi Ford rear end. Steel body, 'glas doors, flip front, trunk and rear fenders. Custom headers and exhaust, electric dumps. It's painted a PPG candy red metallic with ghost flames, interior is pretty sparse mostly black car pet and headliner, black buckets. The car was another project it was a roller with a custom built frame---Why you may ask are they projects--well the answer is I'm not a welder/fabricator so my skill set there is rather limited."Breathe in...
