Features 41-48 Ford and Merc Picture Thread!

Amen to that! Phat, I must tell you that that beast of yours has been one I've admired for a long time. Gotta drive the wheels off of them no mater what style you favour!!

Thanks for the compliment on the cpe Dave. I've slowed down in mileage on the cpe in recent years, has just over 96K now. Been busy doing my western parts trips the last few years. Have put 76K on my truck in 4 years doing that

So much for a quick "get it running" project.

 

Does anyone know the suspension/wheel+tire combo on this car?

 

Hope this helps, I too was wondering the same thing so I talked to Pat a few weeks ago on IG asking him the same question. The tires are 560-15 up front with narrowed upper and lower A arms, the rear tires are G78-15 and I forgot the rear set up.

Few things to finish up and it's off to sand blast/powder coat.

 

Drugasm, you should consider a build thread! Of course I'm glad you're posting here too!

This is my Dads 48 Sedan. The first picture is when his Dad, my Grandpa, bought it in 1971. At that time it had a flathead 6.




This is how it looks today it now has a 50 Merc Flathead v/8 and a 39 Ford transmission. It has always been on the road since my Grandpa bought it 46 years ago!

 

Is there a video somewhere of your sedan doing a burnout at the track? I remember the hoodless 3 carb set up..... maybe from YouTube.

 

Yup, there is a vid on YouTube

My friends 46 Sedan, 351 Windsor, C4, 9" rear. Car is for sale in the classifieds. SOLD

 

LBCD, here's a couple of shots I took of your sedan at the GNRS. I dearly love your car, its a perfect example of what most mild customs looked like in my heyday.
