I hope you all know I didn't just mean your cars, If it's got a Ford motor put 'er up here.


Suprised nobody metioned this.

I forgot who, but someone used to race a chopped Willys with a 59' Edsel motor in it.

 

Ok, well I've also got this in the works. A Y-block powered FED.

 

Here's my '32 3w project with a carbureted 4.6 4 cam.

 

The Yellow Brick and the FED are awesome.

 

all my fords have fords in them

 

The Cleveland is not a "big block".

Thank you 58custom, for that concise and correct Cleveland clarification. That "big block" moniker always bothered me too.

 

My 56

 

Sounds like the solinoid is wired wrong.

 

But I made a mistake. I failed to preface my comments by passing on to Bossy that he has one very fine Falcon. Looks like he modified the front end and got rid of the shock towers. Looks amazing, and I'd like to know more about it and the engine.

 

My '58. Got a 460 in it now but I'm putting the FE and all of the old drag stuff back in.

 

Here is mine

 

286 cu in 1939 merc flathead

 

the drool factor is amazing,nice work.

 

here's my 32 with a 460...........

 

Here is my 56 powered by 312 Y, 3 spd OD. Been "on the road" since 1999. Also have a 64 SWB F100 still Y block powered!

 

my 428 cobra jet dual quad motor and toploader 4 speed that was in my last car !

 

Duece fordors and 460's kick major ass... That's a sweet build!!

 

This ride is awesome,,,very nice.

 

Here's my 41 - 2.3 with a turbo and a T5. We get 30+ mpg at 75 and have run 13.50's with basically a stock motor. Just got it back on the road after using it to hold down the garage floor for the past 4 years.

 

Great Thread!
The 429 SCJ in my Custom, not the prettiest engine, but you sure can stroke them!
My all-time favorit is the Y-block. My 57 F-100 had a few over the years, this was the fastest.

 

Glad to finally see some more Ys other than mine show up.

 

This (once dressed to look like a Cobra 289)



Is going here:



which is the engine compartment of this:

 

Work in progress a 5.0 HO with a AOD now took out the 5 sp for another project , also has a 8 inch rear end .



The 351 W will have the T-5 and 9 inch going in this soon .

 

Does a Lincoln Y count?

 

ANOTHER Lincoln motor, too damn cool to be excluded from the "Ford thread" !

From my 55 Lincoln
