    I hope it's okay to stretch this out a bit to '59..... This little Custom 300 has been sitting in the same place for at least 10 years, with the hood up to the safety catch, on flat tires. It was about 50' from a very busy commercial street. I, like every one else keep telling myself, "One of these days I'm going to check that out".... So a while back I'm cruizing with my brother, and he pulls into the yard. Imagine my surprise when I look under the cracked hood and have a big 'ol gold valve cover looking back at me, with a circle that reads "406 Cubic Inch High Performance Engine 59 custom 300.jpg "...... Holy crap !!!! and I glance down to see the clutch linkage, and sure enough, it has a 4-speed. A little snooping, and the critter is mine......

    I would say with a story like that, it's more than fine to include it on this thread. Heck of a find there!
