with the skirts the rear should be lower than front.at least that is the way we ran them in the60s.other than that it is a very clean looking car
It probably is,note the roof line in relation to the house looks like a downhill driveway making for an illusion.
I beg to differ if you look closely at lake pipe to pavement from front to back.love your dedication to this site
Both '57's are neat. IMHO nothing better for a gasser except a willys. I like the one straight trim on the Custom, but not so much the grille. That 2 piece bumper is outstanding. I really like the down under Ford/Mercury Ute!. Is that as from the factory??
I don't think they came tri-colour new. I was going to say its pretty stock but keep noticing bits like it would have had a chrome rocket on the bonnet so it must have some mild mods. I probably have more pics of aussie cars - these ran through to 58 maybe 59
I'd sure like to think that's a Ford in that Ford. Probably not, but awesome car anyway. It's kinda nice to see somebody else F$*%'d up their car with High back bucket seats as well, lol.
I dont like'em buckets, but thats just me.. Anyways it should be interesting seeing what happens when someone slammed the throttle with that monster blower, while seating on a bench seat...
That last one is my favorite for multiple reasons. But yeah, you're not the only one because the previous owner of my car put some ugly**** buckets up front that look like they are probably 80s GM garbage. I'll have a bench back in there eventually. For that car above though, the racing type seats it has are definitely needed! Man, I'd love to cruise that thing around and listen to the blower whine.
OK guys here's little tease for you. Back in the 70's I was managing at M&M Speed Engineering in Sacramento a couple miles away the Hall Bros speed Shop stood these guys were always********** Ford and passed it unto their sons,this 1956 Ford is BBF powered. Enjoy !
