Thanks Danny. We're back up and running. Technical glitch, but it was corrected quickly. If you're a 54 Ford owner, come check us out.
Thanks for the info. My car came with a 3 speed and no overdrive. So, it looks like I have a 3.90:1 gear. (I bought the car nearly 30 years ago...
I'm not that particular Alan but I guess I need to check and see what ratio is in my tudor now. Whatever it is, I like the way it's working with...
It looks like the rear end gear in my 2 door sedan is toast. Anyone have a good set they'd let go of?

thanks Danny!
Finally updated my blog after ignoring for a while. Give it a peak when you get a chance. https://mainlineford.wordpress.com Then visit us at...
Yep...so true.
I like the look of the Model A radiator shell. Deuce shells are pretty but you see them on everything.
I'm down to my last 52-54 dog leg panel. It's a left side piece....the other's have all been sold. If you need it, now's the time to get it....
I do not have the panel for a 2 door.
Dog-Leg (Rear of Rear Door Opening) Patch Panels. Shown below is the left side panel. Manufactured in the 1950's by the Schofield Mfg Co,...
I have some vintage (stamped in the 1950's) lower body patch panels for that car if you need them.
That's so cool. There are several crimes I would at least consider committing to have my great-grandfather's car.
I've had three Edelbrock 1405's and they've been great carbs with one exception. In my experience, they tend to be hypersensitive to crud in the...
Good to hear you go back on. I've lurked around on the 57 site. I've always wanted a 57 Ranchero (even back when they were pretty...
Great thread. I'm so glad you kept the Hemi. With a Camaro clip and a SBC, it would've been just another ho-hum car. This will be special. I...
Hi guys...sorry for the delay. I don't check in here very often. Email me at don@1954ford.com and ask for the list and I'll reply with it.
1957 Ford Fender. Been in a Texas warehouse since the 1960's. Looks like it's still wearing original paint. The chrome is excellent as is the...
Jeff....I've completed my list of Ford patch panels. It's quite long. Would you like me to post it here?
I recently took possession of around 1,000 NOS repair panels made in the USA in the 50's and early 60's by the Schofield and Schott companies....
You could do what I did and find a stock automatic steering column for your car, then join the AOD and the column with a fabricated linkage (I...
Here's the thread that Jeff was originally referring to. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=260795&highlight=aerostar+spring...
Jeff....tried the link....it didn't seem to go anywhere related to springs.
I know Aerostar springs are supposed to be a good way to lower a 54 Ford, but I've always considered first-hand experience to be much more...
I think I personally helped my local Ace Hardware owner buy a new car with all the fastener purchases I made while buying parts for my 54....
Yep. As much as we all wish you well, if I was you (OP), I'd ask the admins to delete this thread. And don't talk about it publicly like...
Prayer sent. I can empathize. I rolled a 64 Fairlane tudor, nearly end over end....snapped the steering wheel with my leg and screwed up my...
Lately progress on the 54 is coming in short spurts. Tonight I had just a few minutes in the garage so I installed my sway bar with all new...
