So now I know how to do up mine......NOT!
Ya, it sucks......all of it...... the 350 small block and 350 turbo, the Camero clip and rear end, chevy tilt and the lowering job.
Nice colour tho.

Be positive... at least it hasn't found its way to the crusher yet. Sure its not the way we'd do it, but it probably runs just as well as an early Ford Model t with a 383...

Everyone has different tastes. As Sherm mentioned, its still been kept alive.
Its just like when guys make a restomod out of a classic pony car or a street rod out of an old coupe!

Agreed, do like the color but don't understand the attraction to the GM parts........buy a GM, or just be different. Seems like a lot of work to be that different.

I like it!


Jokes, it looks like its in good shape and all, and the chevy small block is a great motor, but cmon, not in a cool old ford!

Im 70/30 on the lowering of it as well. Could be better, but also could look alot worse.

Looks like it was in great shape before he started and I think it should have been kept as a survivor rather than be trashed....but it`s his truck so he could do what ever he liked.

A 383 would be really cool Sherm, that`s a fairly rare Mercury engine from the 50`s!
