The Ford Barn

I wish I had a dollar for every Chevy powered "street rod" we have blown past on the highways and byways of the southeast in our Flathead powered cars. The funniest part is that these bastard cars have blowers, big cams, big carbs and all sorts of aftermarket innards. All that to conform to some silly ideal that "you have to put a Chevy in it to make it run". That had to be one of the biggest lies ever foisted on a certain segment of the population. Those always seem to be putting around in the slow lane.

I say keep it a Ford, make sure your ancillary components are in good condition, gear it properly and "let it eat!"
