Welcome to the family and you will meet many here that you will just get on with, those that still have those old Ford Boat anchor type engines. Just pulling your leg, mate....
Welcome, tell us a little about yourself.
Thanks for the welcome....not much to tell...Retired Navy Gunners Mate Chief, Vietnam vet...Retired County Jail Sergeant...originally from California, been in Las Vegas 30+ years.
Main "hobby" is motorcycles....2011 Moto Guzzi Griso 1200, 1969 Moto Guzzi Ambassador 750. Also have a 97 Dodge/Cummins truck.
Married, Wife had been wanting her own "oldie"....found this 54 Ford nearby...really good condition, just needs some upgrading....
Actually, one reason I liked this car was that it has a later 289, '66 I believe, with some performance goodies...Holley 4bbl, with Street Dominator intake....custom exhaust manifold...Accel distributor.... stainless exhaust...I'm buying a disc brake conversion this week....too much go, not enough stop!!!
Sounds like a neat ride, my first car was a 52 Sunliner that my step father gave me in 1961, senior year of high school. Marine vet here and thanks for your service.
