It's nice to finally have the engine in and running great! Now I can enjoy driving and doing "little" projects. Mike

Sweet, Are we going to see it tearing up the dragstrip at Columbus?
By YellowWing - 14 Years Ago
Maybe not the drag strip but the other day I was able to pass another car. First time I was able to do that since I've owned the 56. I didn't really need to pass him, just did it because I could Smile Mike

Maybe not the drag strip..




That's not a no!
By YellowWing - 14 Years Ago
Well technically a dragstrip is, anywhere there are two guys two cars and an open stretch of road. So you never know Wink

Hey YellowWing,

Congrats on that neat Crown Vic.

Anybody who does'nt get a little high looking at a lovely

Crown Vicky (55 or 56) is just on a different wave length

from me.

By YellowWing - 14 Years Ago
Thanks, I think the mid 50s Fords were far and away the best looking. It confounds me why anybody would prefer the Chevys. On the upside it makes my 56 a rare sight at shows so it gets lots of attention.

Don, yours is looking good if a little blurry Tongue Mine looked like that a couple months ago. Seems like it takes forever then suddenly it just comes together. Mike

Good looking engine and a great looking car!  What are the chances of a video with a little noise?  BigGrin
By YellowWing - 14 Years Ago
I was going to do a video on Sunday but ran out of time. Will try again this weekend.

what kind of carb are you running?
By YellowWing - 14 Years Ago
Tom, it is a Road Demon Jr. I had some initial problems with it due to the duration of my cam 224 degrees. I have it working pretty well now and am very happy with the look of it under hood. Mike

Mike;

You also have a good looking engine compartment! Can you give me some information on the electric fan you're running? I've been measuring for one and it looks like I'll need a low profile fan, but all the ones I've seen are too small of a diameter.

Also, is that a green Whizzer in the background??

Rono

By YellowWing - 14 Years Ago
Rono, fan actually came with the new radiator and was mounted in a shroud. It was supposed to fit but did not come close to fitting. I made a new set of brackets and it works perfect. I did cut off the end of the water pump shaft where it extends through the pump pulley. Here is a link to the fan.

Yes that is a 53 Whizzer I built about ten years ago. I have a few more bikes than cars. Mike
