    new project in progress

    Here's a rusty before and and a shiny finish to show you my before and after. I had to replace almost every piece of sheetmetal except the roof and the hood. It's nice to see your customer want to save the originality. Saving a 57 that was as bad as mine gave me a lot of freedom to build a...

    It is so ugly it's cute. I dragged that stupid car all the way from Denver to Scottsdale for Good-Guys. My buddy Adam got a pick and all I got was a $700.00 diesel bill.:rofl I just let him stay around so I can remember what kind of competition the 409's had back in the day.

    Thanks for the kind words. I was very happy with the way the old biscayne turned out.

    Hi Robert, That old piece of Mopar junk is a 62 Dodge 413 dual quad / pushbutton automatic. Low mileage, original interior car that came from Canada. It belongs to my friend here in Denver. It looks good but it's not that quick. I smoked him in my 57 Belair, and we've never raced my Biscayne...

    Replicating the 340 horse 327

    I'm putting a 64 327 small journal in my deuce coupe. I built it last winter with a rumpity little comp cam,and will be running stock exhaust manifolds, 2X4 WCFBs on a Weiand 327 manifold or two Edelbrock 500s on a C26. I put a t-5 behind it, and can't wait to fire it up. I think it's the best...

    Engines considered to be "Collectible"

    I'm sure most of you guys don't like flat motors, but I've got a good original one in my 51 Mercury. I sure would like to have my buddy's Ardun OH valve conversion heads for it.

    I have two friends that went. They said the prices were unrealistic. There were a huge number of registered bidders.

    You must be a miracle worker. I have countless hours trying to gey my PMC valve covers to seal, and I think I 've tried everything. Total junk IMO. Nice motor btw.
