Hey guys, Checking in as a new owner of a 1954 Crestline Sedan. Here's a few pictures. Very little cancer, floors are solid. Its currently not running, been sitting for a few years. Not sure if I want to stick with the y-block and ford-o-matic, or if i'm going to trade up to a 302/351/AOD combo. I'll snag some more pics as I can.
hey welcome along . '54 looks great , I'd give it a birthday (lube, plugs wires, brakes etc) and then just drive it - we all need a 'favorite ol pair o boots' ! .
welcome, solid looking 4 door there. lots of good info here, ive learned alot about these old cars since i was welcomed in.
bottleneck, Like the 54. My 55 has the Y block as well and am keeping it 6 volt. Ive found quite a few people into the Y blocks and simple hop ups like 4-V manifolds to gain a couple of hp.
I'm definately going to try and stick with the combo thats in it, I just have no history on it. The car hasn't run in 6 years from what i'm told. I'm going to see if I can get it running this weekend. Got the plugs out and the marvels in it right now.
Welcome from Ca. Great group of car nuts here. with a lot of info if you need some. To the group I just found a new project. Bought it at a storage sale for 500. have some pics in album. Still having problem posting.
