Re: Lets see your 36 Fords !
Wow... some nice 36's here
Here are some build pics of my 36 coupe. It is a bit further along since these pics were taken. Finishing up plumbing and wireing. The interior will have to wait until this winter. Last edited by DirtyDan; 04-18-2011 at 10:08 PM. |

Re: Lets see your 36 Fords !
What a great color scheme! Love the gold block in the blue engine compartment and the gold wheels. Definitely royal. I was always a 39-40 man but these 36 coupes have changed my mind especially lowered and with the wide whites.

Re: Lets see your 36 Fords !
In early September 1952 I purchased my '36 Ford 5win Deluxe Cpe for the grand price of $225. The original owner was one of my high school teachers. The car had 51k on the odometer and was in stock condition.
I promptly set out to modify the car into a vehicle that was fitting for the times. I added hydraulic brakes, a column gear shift, on the left side of the column, a chrome dash, skirts, flipper disk hub-caps, long shackles to the rear and '37 Desoto bumpers.... I was so cool! After having the skirts stolen twice and the hub caps three times I went to stock '46 Ford caps and beauty rings. In 1954 I replaced the engine with a 59 AB bored .60, Jahns pistons, Weber F-1 cam, Offy heads and Offy Super dual manifold w/97's. The ignition is Harmon-Collins dual coil, exhaust is through stock '36 manifolds with 2" pipes running though stock type mufflers. The '41 trans was replaced with a '47-48 Merc trans and the Columbia was upgraded to a 46-48 unit using the stock '36 center section w/37 Radius bars. The front axle was replaced with a '42-48 axle dropped 2", tube shocks and '40 steering gears... Prior to repainting the car in '61 I removed the '37 Desoto bumpers and '41 wheels, in favor of stock items.. In 1963 I removed the 40 Chevy headlights which had been put on in '52. I have thought about returning the car to stock, however, it runs and drives so good, I have been reluctant to do so.

Re: Lets see your 36 Fords !
Here's a pic of the cabriolet that got me started with convertibles. I think we put 1,000 local miles on it the first year.
