A retiring Sheriff from my old home town purchased one of his old police cars back in the late 50s. He was an old hot rodder at heart. A friend of my older sister bought the car from his estate after he died. The guy lifted the hood for me after he got it and showed me the three Stromberg 97s that the old sheriff had installed. It had a Mallory distributor on it with centrifugal advance. This was a 1956 fordor but it ran pretty strong. The exhaust really sounded good on it.
