Hello all, I am just a guy with a 53 Vicky. She is in nice shape with surface rust that arrived shortly after she did here in Key West. Vicky is stock with headers and duels. Every thing else is original. She has 48,500 on the odometer. Automatic without backup lights, Glacier Blue under Sungate Ivory, 239 auto with turn signals, radio that doesn't and a clock with electric wind that will kill the battery. New breaks and wheel seals. She needs seals for the diff and both ends of the trans. After I replace the 1959 vintage tires I will replace the carpet and hopefully fix the radio. Slow but sure as funds come available. I know some of you understand.
hey bud, thanks for letting me look your car over the other day. thats a sweet ride. i would keep that old flathead running for sure...good luck on the HAMB
Hey Weatherguy,Welcome!! You can't beat those vicky's with a club! I had a'51,a53 Meteor a '56 Meteor Hey Weatherman, Welcome from Canada! Victoria's are cool rides.My first was a '51 then a '53 and a '56. Best wishes!
Welcome from a bit further up US-1. Your Victoria sounds like a great ride. Know what you mean about things getting rusty close to the ocean. Do you ever venture north of the 7-mile bridge with her. Looks like there's lots of weekend car activities coming up in South Florida in the next month or two before summer sets in. But I forgot, it's summer in Key West year round. Lee
