I've always loved the story of Bonnie and Clyde. Especially more so after I learned that they murdered the 2 TX highway patrolmen just up the...
x2!! I think I may have a new obsession on my hands for a family cruiser
Place here in Dallas charged $800 for a complete '52 Ford coupe frame, upper and lower a arms, front coil springs, and front and rear bumper...
How much you askin for a rear?? :D
I've had a '52 Customline for nearly 14 years and I've probably only seen maybe 10? 15? 52-54 Fords on the road or in shows since then? They...
I usually go out there and walk around. I don't really ever see anything I need out there to buy but it's a good way to spend the day walking...
[IMG] I drove this car all through high school. Class of '99. '67 Impy more-door. I skipped school one day and happened to see it parked on...
looks great man! I really need to put my '52 back together.... hell I never should've even taken it apart!! lol
Hardest part is convincing the woman of the house to use the oven to bake a bunch of car parts LOL
I see what you mean now. I assumed you were talking about progressive VS 1:1. I played around with the carbs before mounting them. They both...
I found some links of "all-thread" or threaded rod at Lowes. It's not quite long enough but I got a couple and some connecting pieces...hopefully...
The linkage on the carburators was already setup like that when I bought everything. Instead of being progressive with only the rear carb...
Guessing it'd be cheaper to just buy the parts needed than it would be to buy the tools required to do that. Plus if I ever go back to a single...
Big Block Chevy, Edelbrock Dual Quad system on it... [IMG] Obviously as you can see the factory linkage is too long to work. I've been...
I planned on running a real spot lamp on my '52 coupe. I always loved how the real ones looked on stock bodied cars with all the trim and...
Good deal. I'm no welder though, and I don't know where to get any steel plate to weld in. Though shorty, if you have that same piece that...
[IMG] This is the frame that my '52 Ford Customline 2 door coupe came with. As you can see the previous owner (or any owner before me) chopped...
Been a long time member on DFWstangs...lots of the guys there post here too. They always were talking about the "HAMB" so I googled HAMB and here...
Great links and info guys. My '52 Customline has been sitting for WAY too long. My dad's first car was a '52 Ford so he bought one for me...
Wow thanks for the pics. Mine have been sitting out in the weather so they definately need to be cleaned up. I'll snap some pics tomorrow. I'm...
One last question. Are these wheels supposed to have a uni-lug pattern? I can't tell for sure but i looks like whoever had them before may have...
What are you thinkin' about? Or will you just know when you see it?
Center cap says "Cal Chrome" Can't find any markings on the backside of the wheels. Does anybody still run these wheels on anything?
Slotted Mags...I guess I did know what they were called, just couldn't put the two together. They seem to remind of 70's cars for some reason
And what would they look good on? [IMG] These are what my '52 Customline was rolling on when I bought it. Sorry ahead of time if it's been...
I registered a while back, just never posted. Just sayin whatsup...now back to posting :D
You're out of your damned mind wanting to cut up a car that nice. I have a '52 Ford Customline I'd consider cutting the roof off of, but only...
Couple of links that may be helpful.... http://www.chevelles.com/forums/showthread.php?t=195620...
That's a sweet car with a cool history and story attached to it. I'm a fan of those big body cars. They make great cruisers. I'm in the same...
