I was going to use these myself but the chrome was too bad to run as is. They have a factory chrome coating and factory black paint. From what I have gathered so far this may have been a first half of 1958. I don't believe it was any thing special as this was an undisturbed 2 barrel 332 from a Ranch Wagon. My early 58 Thunderbird 352's stamped parts are the same way. Picture shows two smooth dings. These have surface rust where the chrome cam off, NO RUST HOLES. They are partially soda blasted and when finished could be smoothed out with sandable primer. The reinforcement lip on rail is unique to 58 and 59. The center spark plug separators I believe unique to early Ford. I believe all Edsel 361 and 427 valve covers were up front. These will clear OEM adjustable rockers.
Edsel, FE, Ford, Mercury, 332, 352, 360, 361, 390, 406, 410, 427, 428 |

Dodge Durango (w/ Gallery)
Fri, 03 Sep 2010Chrysler's Dodge brand has released the first photos of the third generation Durango. Built on the same platform as the new Jeep Grand Cherokee, the latest iteration of the SUV features a unibody structure rather than the body-on-frame setup of its predecessors. The Durango has never been a particularly elegant offering within the Dodge lineup, but it seems the company is looking to change this perception with this latest incarnation.
Collector electrifies a 1955 LaSalle Roadster
Fri, 29 Oct 2010Just months after Joe Bortz's unveiling of the restored 1955 Chevrolet Biscayne, the auto archeologist and collector is moving into the second phase of restoration with another General Motors Motorama concept car: the 1955 LaSalle Roadster. But here's the key difference--the LaSalle is going electric. As the LaSalle's motor was never completed, the roadster is considered a “push mobile.” To prepare the car so that it can be driven--rather than pushed--on the road, Bortz has teamed up with Pioneer Conversions, an Illinois business focusing in the electric conversion of various vehicles.
