Cool car!!! I like that Stude body style.

Sweet wagon!!! Great daily drivers.

Nice Ford!!![cl What's under the hood?

Have the front spears in the trunk. Yea, I'm gonna leave it weathered. The doors have that distinct creak when you open them, every tri-five I've had. Gotta rebuild or replace carb as the plunger is shot from sitting. I did run it up and down the road with the boy, front end feels great as do...

Haven't posted in a while, thought I'd re-acquaint. This followed me home yesterday. I'ts a 57 chevy sport sedan. Still has the original 283/powerglide that runs as smooth as silk. For once , I didn't have to drag it on the trailer!! She is a very solid survivor with looks like one repaint but...

Cool woody-rat, I like it!!![cl

AWESOME!!!!!!! I love old conversions like that, really tells a story about life back in the day.[cl

Try Flood Penetrol. I use it to preserve the patina, works good. I brush on a new coat every year. Easy to use, just brush it on, no need to tape off anything. Doesn't leave any brush marks either. Get it at Lowe's.

Great show and pics, Thanx. I'm Jealous of your nice warm climate. I'm sick of ours, it's near 0 degrees everyday for the last 30 days here in Rotchester NY. I'm still drivin my 57 wagon back and forth to work though (****in' everybody off!!!)

Thanx for the pics!! I see at least 3 ass-monkey cars there too. Prolly lost money on all of 'em too!!! HEE HEE!!!!

Depends on what you are welding. Finish work always requires grinding when comes to aesthetics and or safety. The best welders that I've worked with over the years always had a flap wheel in the wait. Penetration is what really matters.

Picked up this 56 Chevy last month. It's a 210 more-door hardtop which is fairly rare. I love this body style especially since I cant afford 2 door versions. It's out of AZ, so it is rock-solid, 1st one I wont have to do any floor repair really or any rot repair on the body at least. The fenders...

Great score on the 54 Poncho!! I miss mine terribly. Had the straight 8/ Hydromatic with power steering, I loved it. Damn college kid smashed into it and totaled it...

Very Cool!!!! Definition of a true rat-rod...

Great car. Easy to put in any drivetrain with the open rear too. Have fun!!!!
