I picked this up a couple of months back and it is my dream car. It has ford heritage and says ford on it in many places so thought id post some pics up.

Pics are from the detailers and ultimate stance show 2018:
















So far ive had mr whitewalls increase the size of my whitewalls, had it detailed and changed, plates and opened the boot

Future plans:
Get the bench seat repaired (with old leather so it looks factory)
Fix the vaccum locks
Fix the radio and clock
Gas the air con
Fit air suspension
cruise round like a G

The plan is to take it across to worthersee next may

I love the shape of the Continentals of that time. Awesome car.

This one was just over 20k

You can get them about 12 to 15k but it is very much dependent on year and colour. A 64 black on black car first sold into california is very desirable. Some can cost 100k

I think i had quite a good buy, it was originally up for 27k so i knocked them down quite a bit and it has had a bare metal spray

If it was mine it would be on air ride & some big Detroit Steel wheels.

All my cars have skinny tyres and im so fed up of blow outs that this one is staying on big white walls but definitely going on air

bassboy

It certainly is all about BIG cars riding low and slow these days!

deanflowers

I always liked this car.

I also have two low and slow mercs:

Ive wanted to own one for years and even when i worked out there for 6 months i failed to find the right car. This one i found in the UK (Manchester)

deanflowers

It has a 430 so pretty big

7044 cm3 / 429.9 cui,

power: 340 hp with torque: 465 lb-ft

Quite meaty but a very heavy car

The metalwork from devious customs in the states for the air ride and front control arm kit has arrived.

Just waiting on the accuair management to arrive from only charged dubs then it will be much lower.

Also im going to drive it to austria in may for worthersee

Jay,

That is just beautiful

This will be so cool with air ride on, accuair are great quality. Will there be much fabrication or is it mostly bolt on?

deanflowers

Its a bolt in kit, you only have to weld arms to the axle and a bit of trimming

Here is the basics in the video below:

How much was the kit,I have a 49 mercury running 75 camaro front clip and rear end that will be on air with c-notched chassis and 2" dropped front,its currently very rough and undergoing a lot of welding

deanflowers

Devious customs do the metal work and bags for $3500 but the management is close to Ł2500 in the UK and then there was fitting and moving all the exhaust and brake lines etc...

Engine is out for a rebuild and repaint the bay. Full under bonnet restoration coming.

Rebuild kit for the motor and gearbox ordered from the states and the cleaning has begun.

Block is now also stripped down ready for machining.

I have MSD atomic EFI to go on it too
