Re: What voltage is a 1955 ford? (NEWBIE)

Re: Door glass run Liner? What have you used?

This sounds like a good idea to me, the only weatherstripping I have seen is foam, would you be able to post a picture or where you got it?

Re: 302 Windsor or Cleveland?

I am familiar with the differences between 351 Windsor and 351 Cleveland, there is a 351 W in my 56, but I didn't know there were different 302s, Windsor vs Cleveland.

Looking good Mike, did the guy you bought the Meteor from paint it? I noticed a couple of 55 or 56 Fords in the background.

Re: New member from Ontario Canada

I am glad it found a good home, those Meteors are getting scarce. I would like to get my hands on a 56 Crown but I need to win the lottery to get one.

Mike, now that I see your 56 side on, I think I was talking to the previous owner on that car. It was advertised on KIJIJI. Due to distance, cost of shipping, etc. I held off. I am sure it will be...

Re: 1954 Police Car

The Monarch, which is similar to a Mercury with different trim, had the OHV engine in 1954.

Re: 1954 Police Car

I have a feeling that this is a U.S. car that was recently made to look like a police car and used for advertising condominiums.

Re: 58 Edsel Pacer

I think the Citation and Corsair lines were built on a Mercury platform, while the Pacer and Ranger were built on a Ford platform. Nice car Ford blue blood.
