'48 Ford Deluxe Coupe Tri-power

Brian has wanted a '48 Ford Deluxe Coupe for 35 years. This one took him four years to build & he did all the work himself.

It has a '53 Mercury flathead bored .060 over to 265cid with milled heads, & three Holly carbs. The three-on-a-tree transmission & rear end are stock.

Interior is '82 T-Bird. He drives it less than 1,000 miles a year.

Nice looking ride and photos. I had a '49 Plymouth but sold it a few years ago. Love the blunt nose with excess chrome. grocery getter trunks. Or boot legging.

Great Shots. Thanks for sharing...

Great shots, but oh, the humanity!!! the sacrilege!!!

an ALTERNATOR on top of a FLATHEAD!!

I know you have connections Frank...but how did you get the Best Western to fly that gray scale banner for you? Nice shots of a nice car too.

Nice ones Frank

What did you replace it with? With your username, should I guess a pickup?

Once you go alternator, you never go back!

Bad advertising remembered is still good advertising?

Thanks for the comments.

Actually I had a '31 Chevy 5 Window Coupe also (all original) at the time. Sold the '31 Chevy this year. I have had a Stingray for a a few years also. The Vette is Highly Modified. I hate to let any car go....but...that's life. Got to drive them or Race. No Trailer Queens around my house.
Kind of like photography equipment buy and sell.

sweet one!

I hope you got a lot of shots of your cars while you had them. You can start a book. See my Sig.
