DAZZA Posted November 1, 2007 Report Posted November 1, 2007 Great motors. Big fan of the Rod and Kustom scene in the USA, especially early builds by the Barris', Gene Winfield, Bill Cushenberry & Dutch to name but a few. How did you find the truck after so long????

I had heard that the truck was located at a shop less than 5 miles from my house! Over a period of a couple of years, I finally talked the guy into selling it to me.

1955ZephyrZodiac Posted November 3, 2007 Author Report Posted November 3, 2007 Nice group! Lovin' that Fairlane wagon! And the F-100 will be super sweet when returned to it's former glory. What are the plans for the Zeph???Thank you sir! Right now we are doing some body work on the Zephyr due to an accident many years ago. Motor is seized, so we are putting in a 140ci 2.3 Ford in it. It will be a 2 tone gray, lowered just a bit with 15x4 1/2 and 15x6 American Racing Torque Thrust D's. I can't keep anything stock!

We are putting a 351 Windsor in the truck.
