Hot Rods Pix of '55-'57 Ford Gassers - the "other" Tri-Fives

A couple of Swedish g***ers!

 

Some more!

 

Um, not sure if those are '55-'57 FORD g***ers... Nice cars tho.

 

Dude...seriously. We need SO much more on that Ranchero. In fact if you have enough info and pictures it really needs it's own thread. especially since you've sort of invaded the Ford Tri 5 thread with it (and the Anglia)

All I can say is WOW!!!
Now get us more info and pics...

 

yeah, all those cars above are definitely cool, but they aren't what I started this thread for.

just 55-57 Fords please, with the occasional 53, 54 and 58 thrown in. Its about the body style and the era of g***er, thats all. I love all g***ers, but its really hard to find pictures of tri-five Fords for some reason.

 

the ranchero is *****in ,,,,,,,,,,,,however maybe take more info and take it over to the street freak or a g***er thread......

 

Have these been posted yet?

 

I am really liking the "dog catcher"!

 

bttt

 

Has anyone ever ordered a pre-made roll cage and modified it to fit a short wheel base 57? I'm getting ready to put one in mine and thought someone may have found an easier way.

 

Don't know if this Vid has been posted yet...

Thanks for the Great pics & videos,, really inspireing,, I threw this 56 Fairlane Sedan together a few years ago,, but sold it,, sort of regret it now,, well well ,,

 

Nice Crown Vic in the back ground.

 

How 'bout a paint job from the Photoshop Paint Works & Garden Supply?

 

Here's mine from my little test strip last weekend. No g***er stance or g***er ETs, but a fun, street-driven, FE powered '56 I built 9 years ago.

Bob, I like it!!! Nice clean looking car.

 

Thanks, it sure is fun.......

 

That car looks and sounds good. Its got that "Sleeper" effect. Bet you surprise a few people huh?

 

Yes, it looks like an old man's car. Oh wait....I am an old man, ha.

 

dang kool!thnx!

 

just got done @ 4:30pm heck the paint is still tacky in the pics!...here yall go!

 

nice color rat, is it going 2 tone or staying a single color ?

 

Oh yeah, this is looking good!

 

I call the color "carmel" but it is actually "orange mist metallic" ppg (shop line) single stage acr enamel. staying single color for now! nothing wild just some simple hand painted lettering

 

Rat Nasty, the wagon is looking unbelievable. And by the way, I decided to keep my '56 and finish building it - thank God. Cant wait to get her done.

Keep it up, guys!

 

Any more pictures of this car?

 

Ok, so here's my old '57 Custom 300 in white. It had a mildly built 312 Y Block. Sold to a lucky gentleman back east months ago who ***ures me it found a good home and a possible big block motor swap. I sold it to be able to buy recently a '56 Customline Victoria which will be pretty close to the Zagar & England rig when finished. I have an original Ford 406 which I plan to slot into it. I'll post pictures of that rig when it's finally delivered.

 

man thats great glad to hear u can keep it!and thnks!
also that green 56 "Zagar~England" looks the part!badd azz!!!!!!!!

 

brigand1968 i like that white 300 very cool

 

Thanks! I liked it a lot. The exhaust note made old people really mad and often induced tears of terror in small children. I fired it up in the driveway one day with the headers uncapped and my neighbors came over an told me that if I did it again they'd run me out of town on a rail!
