That's badass Bob!
I also liked the picture above of you and Daywalker lining up. Must have been early. That California highway looked empty and ready for a run lol.

It was about 8ish. That may or may have been what we were getting ready to do.
My mom had a '55 baby Bird.
Dad blew the engine at New England Dragway.
Forgiveness was never granted.

LOL, sorry. I forgot that type of activity is only done in "Mexico."It was about 8ish. That may or may have been what we were getting ready to do.
That's sweet! Manual or auto?
Auto. It's a 5.0/AOD conversion.
Really? Wow, that's pretty cool.
The one my dad is giving me has the factory V8 and automatic transmission. I'll be moving it into my garage as soon as my 65 is done.

wow, that is awesome. my mom had a triple yellow (or whatever the pale whitish-yellow color was) '57. i remember driving around in it when i was very young in the mid-sixties. automatic. she sold it at one point and always regretted selling it because she loved the car so much. it would probably be worth big bucks now. she did say it always had overheating problems though. 390? i'm not sure
I think the main engine for those was the 312. Maybe the 390 was an option. But it's not a big car at all. They owned one when I was a kid that was almost 1000 point correct at one of the t-bird shows. I think they missed by 3 or 4 points. They sold it because they couldn't drive it in California. They regretted ever since.
Yeah my Dad gave his 57 Chevy to my brother already. Once I have the room in my garage I'll be bringing his 57 T-Bird home. My Dad said he wants to "see" me and my brother enjoy the cars before he passes, which is why he is giving them to us now.
I'm not sure which engine is in my Dad's T-Bird. It is either the 292 (4.8) or the 312 (5.1). It does have over heating problems. It has an electric fan pushing air with the factory fan pulling air and it still runs a little warmer than we like. I'll probably replace the water pump and thermostat once I get it. I'll probably have the radiator serviced as well. Hopefully that will help.
The T-Bird I'm getting looks exactly like this one.
The 57 Chevy my brother already has (You can see the T-Bird on the other side of the Chevy).
