    Anyone know if there is a 1952-54 Ford customline/mainline thread? I have search high and low and can't find anything. The cars are cool and they don't seem to get much love in the traditional car community for whatever reason.

    The Social Group postings got moved into the Off Topic Hot Rods and Customs section. Go there and then scroll to the bottom and change the Thread Display Options to 52-59 Ford. Lots of information in the FAQ file

    I bought my ‘52 Customline in 1969 , when I was 12. Originally a Fordomatic V8, I converted it to 3spd stick. Learned a lot on this old girl. IMG_0445.jpeg IMG_0842.jpeg IMG_0832.jpeg IMG_0834.jpeg

    I tried to buy a '54 that was in my neighborhood when I was in my late 20's... so about 20ish years ago. I wouldn't be surprised if it is still sitting there. I really was digging on that car, but when I stopped by I offered a "coupla hundred" (not having much money at the time) and their response was "we were thinking a coupla thousand"... and with that, the negotiations stopped in one fell swoop. Oh well.

    Not a Mainline but a 54 gl***top. My buddy Billy built it back in the 90's. I wonder where it is today billy.jpg billy2.JPG billy3.jpg billy4.jpg billy5.jpg billy6.jpg

    I realize I wasn't super specific in my post- what I meant was- is there a "show us your 1952-1954 ford mainline, custom line, etc car" like many other cars have?
