Bob stopped by my shop on his way home last night. As some of you know, he bought my 50 Ford from a guy up north. I owned this car back in 63-64 & havent seen it since.It still looks good & I know its in good hands now.Thanks Bob for bringing it by & I look forward to taking it for a drive in a few weeks. DAVE
Id like to take this opportunity to say "IM AN ***HOLE". I never sent him the pics I promised from Holland Mich in 90 from the kkoa nats.If Im not mistaken,the car was also in the Rod and Custom coverage of the event. This week for sure!
Thats a kool car. Really neat how it worked out that Bob got it and you got to see it again. I bet that will be a great ride too...
I stopped down at the shop and saw it this morning on the way to school.....that car is awesome. It must have been cool/hard to see it again. How far is it sectioned, and what is the grille out of?
This car is AWSOME! It was really cool to see Shifts face when he saw that car for the first time in 40 years. I've got big plans for it. Hopefully I can afford to pull it off..........
40 years... that's amazing. Did Bob give any indication to what he has planned for it? I know he threw out some suggestions when he first mentioned he was going to get it.
It will be better than ever. Lime Gold Candy, straight from Canada, a completely different hood and grill area, Pearl white Tuck and Roll. etc etc. I'm gonna paint it a different shade of primer for the Pile up and put some Spiders on it. It's really fun to drive.
That car ****s. You mean I have to drive that hunk of **** to the Pile up?? ****.,... Can I drive the Cherokee insted?? Don't worry people you'll get the full story on MFS 2 ..I promis. Evel The car RULES.
Wow...that rules! Yes, pics of the motor would be cool...and what transmission is in it? 3 or 4 spd? Your plans for it sound like they'll fit the car perfectly.
I'm gonna paint "INVADE CANADA" on the trunk. HaHaHa It is a 401 mated to the 50 ford 3 speed with overdrive. The overdrive isn't hooked up. It has a 57 Ford 9 inch.

Great Score Bob. I would remove those bumper guards first thing. It looks like the bumpers are in good shape, just in case they aren't, I've got about 3 sets of them, was gonna use them on the 52 but they are too narrow and I was too damm cheap to widen them and have them rechromed. All 3 set's need to be rechromed though. Can't wait to see it. I'm gonna miss the pile up by being out west but I'll be in Milwaukee for school in December and maybe shoot out after school one evening to take a peek. B B
Lose the dummy (?) spots. Very cool to take it to an original owner to show. Should happen more often.
I allready took off the gay *** spots and caddy hubcaps. I like those 57 hubcaps, but they don't belong on this car..... It allready looks cooler............ I can't believe I own this.
Great lookin car !!! It looks like it just drove out of a garage 40 years ago.... Ida kept the dummy spots !
That thing is so kill! So kewl you took it by to show it to Shifts. Gotta get some pics of him picking up chicks in it. Just like he used to back in the day. Don't spray it pink for the Pileup,it might clash with Evels eveningwear ......Shiny
