leez Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 1955 Ford Fairlane unfinished rat rod style Location: Columbus Ohio photos may be seen at: http://picasaweb.google.com/NuclearBuckeye D_E_T_A_I_L_S this ex- drag car was purchased about a year ago, & virtually nothing has been done to it since...it's never been driven more than a few blocks & it's performance envelope isn't known, we assume the thing will run like a monster if suspension is corrected & engine is properly dialed-in.. these are the specifications to the best of our knowledge: solid body & frame, no structural rust anywhere it has an optional straight axle set-up that can be installed for that authentic 60's "gasser look" 1968 FORD 428 CI, V-8 FE engine, surgically clean internally possibly out of a Shelby Mustang, with Weiand valve covers T-10, 4 speed transmission with Hurst "T" handle shifter with hydraulic clutch because it was raced a few times, we assume it has a positraction rear end, gear ratio is unknown stainless steel exhaust pipes on stock cast headers , glass pack muffs & wired for flame throwers 650 holly on CJ intake manifold with new street/strip mechanical fuel pump & new regulator, also have new electric fuel pump not installed Summit street/strip electronic distributor & new fat hi voltage wiring new (1) wire type alternator big tires on deep chrome rims electric trunk rough but solid interior, needs paint, carpet & seat covers has tach, oil & temp gages body needs minor filling , smoothing & paint job car should be rewired & needs driver side window also needs it's new front coil springs installed to make it "streetable", because previous owner cut the originals way too short...the new coil springs are included... because the car needs suspension & wiring work it is not what you'd call road worthy, & should be towed or trailered to it's destination... sadly, the bad economy & a job loss has forced us to abandon our great plans, before we even got started, for this street rod, which was happy to be rescued from being hidden in the back of a dark garage for nearly 30 years... what a great body style...this would make a, fantastic, head turning street rod, similar to a 55 Chevy, but more unusual & refreshingly different we are currently working to get the engine jetted to run properly etc... the selling price has not been determined yet,...so if you'd like to make an offer, do so in your email... if interested please leave a message at: OriskanyBombs@... we'll send you an email when the car is ready for prospective buyers to schedule a viewing, hopefully in a week or two... thanks, Lee / Columbus Ohio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
