Looks pretty trick for a 'stock' engine! I hadn't seen the black wrinkle paint/polished fin treatment applied to that combination, but it works.
Nice work. Now let's see some pics of that engine!
Definitely paint it Ford Thunderbird Red. That Ford blue noise is for Mustang restorers... [img] I'm probably not alone in wanting to hear any...
I bought a new copy of the Veda Orr book from the SCTA a couple of years ago. I don't see it at their site now, but it's probably worth a phone...

It might be different between the '48-'50 models and the '51/'52 models. My '49 F1 has VIN numbers on a plate on the firewall, a plate on the...
Not in the same league performance-wise, but If I bought another bike it'd be one of these. Still in production and relatively cheap to boot. Plus...

Geez Papasmurf, exactly what kind of tool are you? Pud puller? Screwed driver? Dork wrench? Drop it already and talk about hot rods for crissakes!...
Django - You have some close-up photos of the engine handy? SBF, right?
I'm running a 289/302 small block Ford in both my projects 'cause SBF's are 100-plus pounds lighter than a small block Chevy and narrower, they're...
I'd buy him a hot dog just for building that thing.

Sam, it looks like you shot all the cars I didn't. I didn't get many in the enclosed garage area either, for the same reason. Anyway, another...
Yeah, the grey '46/'47/whatever was gorgeous in person. Awesome paint on that one.
...and this probably sums up the prevailing attitude of the show. Over and out!
A pickup very similar to my soon-to-be daily driver F1--I'm hoping mine will be finished this month...

This roadster just got freshened at Gordini's Garage, complete with nifty paint job.
If I absolutely must get pulled over for speeding, I'd like it to be this guy.
