This car was built over a period of ten years. Starting in the early 90's and being finished by 2004. It has only been driven 3500 miles since.
The designer/builder is passionate about 53 Fords. You guessed it, his first car... This car was a bit customized when he bought it. By the time it was done, it was completely disassembled, rebuilt on a rotissiere and customized in many, many ways. You can spend hours learning about it and still be impressed with new discoveries.
We have a COMPLETE photo album with narration about the entire project. You'll learn many details from it. The builder is also happy to answer questions. He is extremely proud of his work. So much so, that he sold the car to move on to the next project.
Let's start with the powertrain:
Early 350 Chevy coupled to 350THM transmission. Both completely rebuilt. Engine is extremely healthy and very attractive. Everything is black, aluminum, or chrome under the hood. The transmission was nicely refinished before installation. It all spins a 8.8 inch Ford from a Granada. A common, efficient, easy to work on powertrain.
