History 1954? Wayne MFG catalog hot rod catalog! Complete 40 pages of scans

I have had this catalog for a few years. It was given to me by a close friend of mine that ordered it to build a hot rod motor for his brother-in-law. If there is any intrest I can scan some pages with parts and post them.

CLICK on the picture, let it open, click on it again and it should bring up a new window, click on it again and it is large enough to read.

I am a computer ididot and this was the only way I could find to make the scan fit the required space

 

I am interested.

 

Here are a few more scans.

 

Last part and back cover

 

Cool. Thanks

 

I would love to see as many as you can scan!
Any covering the 12 port head conversions?

 

Here's a strange coincidence..

About a couple of months ago some older ladies walk in to our office in Richardson, tx., trying to sell us some payroll services. She didn't know or really care anything about cars, but she did say something about the old stuff we had in the shop. She mentioned that her grandfather was big into hot rods. .. She asked if we had ever heard of Wayne Horning. Unfortunately we didn't think to ask if she had any memorabilia, pictures or an attic full of leftover molds or anything

 

WARNING... Pages 33 and 34 must only be looked at in broad daylight, fully clothed! I just sayin

 

Thanks for the Inliner's ****

Dare I say right click, save - right click, save - right click, save .......

 

Thanks for taking the time to post that, very cool.....
Feel free to keep going also..
I would like to see the cam chart. '22

 

There is a thread or three asking what my dream car/hot-rod would be...well because it's my dream and you'd never be able to find one...my dream would be powered by that DOHC Wayne engine, a Tremec 5 speed and....
Ah...the chance to dream....

 

Here is the cam page.

Kinda cool that the Bonneville spec is the top dog.

7000 rpm in a straight six, holy ****!!!!!!

 

Thanks for posting the scans of one of my father's catalogs. The Indy car in post #4 has been a grail of mine for years. I heard that the car has been located and will be restored while we were watching the waves break over lands end during World of Speed a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks for taking the time to share all of these pages.

 

how cool is that? that has got to be a very rare catalog.

 

Thanks again BCR for taking the time to share..
Very cool catalog... '22

 

Ran a 270 for a while, most of the stuff I read made Wayne Horning almost sound like a well to do hobbiest, who made a few things. Nothing like setting the record straight for those of us who weren't around to really know what was up. Wouldn't have believed any stories about a cammer motor ever...Thanks.

 

Lights down low,

Soft music on the stereo,

Candles lit,

Gl*** of liquor,

Soft crackling fire,

And the 1954 Wayne Speed Catalog, yeah baby!

 

Thank You, that's what the HAMB is all about.

 

Another big thank you. Very generous of you to take the time and share.

 

Thank You - Thank You - Thank You

 

Well, I went back and edited the original post and have downloaded the entire catalog in order so you may read it like it was in front of you.

I should have done that in the first place but I wasn't thinking. So if some of the post ask for something that is now at the beginning it was my fault. Sorry.

I hope you will enjoy it as much as I have.

Dan, I am glad you approve. You must be so proud of your fathers place in history. He had some vision!

Thanks Mike

 

Very cool, thanks for posting!! Now I'll have to print it all out.

 

Great news Dan, having a much loved car your family was ***ociated with being restored. It shows your dad was right-on when he involved himself in hot rods (street and track), and others appreciate his work. I know I do.

BTW I was given a NOS Wayne Decal whilst I was in LA. Great meeting you too

 

I know I am enjoying this info, thanks again for posting it.

Mark

 

WOW !!!! Thanks for the posting. This will help with my next GMC bonneville project!

 

just found this. thanks BCR for posting this up. great stuff

 

Was checking out page 3, the road racing engine built for the customer in Lima, Peru.
Quotes:
"Used in Road Races over distances of 3000 to 5000 miles"

"generator was required to operate special headlights and spotlights for night driving"

Veddy interesting .... anyone care to venture a guess?
Don't sound like the Pan-American to me!

 

Is there any way to blow them up big enough to read ?
