I'm looking for some pics of 55-57 T-bird g***ers and altereds for a project I may become involved in if I can get the owner modivated enough for something like that. I've seen lots of Vettes, but don't recall ever seeing any T-birds. Thanks in advance.
Not exactly what your looking for but this was at the 1964 Detroit Autorama,.. Billy **** of Romulis Mi. ran a "BAD" 57 bird with a 427 Side oiler in it , in the day,... he won his cl*** at the 69 summernationals,..... (this ain't the car)
Lonnie Sargent has a 55 little bird old g***er big slicks straight axle and a blown 427 sohc 4 speed. been setting in his shop for years i worked for him 12 years ago next time i stop to visit I'll get some photo's.
Check out the Rodders Journal t-shirt collection. There's one with a T-bird g***er that ROCKS!!!!!!!!
COOL model! You need one of those resin teardrop hoods from eBay. Here's the old Kenz-Leslie tuned '57 from Denver:
Always Loved the 55-57 Birds as G***ers..Thats the only way I would ever drive one..There was one locally at Fremont dragstrip and Sears point that ran a 427 with 2x4's Radiused fender wells..ran in the 11's
That was probably another one..this guy was an All Ford guy and lived in Belmont,Ca.I think the car was metalflake Green if I remember right
Stopped by Lonnie Sargents shop last weekend, got this photo, talked with Lonnie said he was going to put the car back together and race it again.
Hey guys, more of a lurker here than a poster but have followed this thread for a few years and had some really good ideas from the white g***er bird. Heres a few of our just finished G***er Bird. I usually don't build em this shiny, but it was a nice change of pace.
I LOVE THIS CAR. I REMEBER SEE IT AT A KID IN THE 70'S IN P***AIC. I seen it again last year restored at the Whiskey Cafe.
here,s a couple pictures at the whiskey a great car with some history maybe someone knows the all story on it?
You guys are gonna hate me, but I know there's a good story on Salty's Shaker, but I can't remember it! (hazzard of the job I guess... I come across a LOT of good cars, and better stories with them). I talked to the owner of it for about an hour and a half a couple years ago at the York Reunion show. BBC powered, like Racemad said. That's the way it was run. -Brad
