This weekend is the 244th Birthday of the US Navy. Just a little something to honor this occasion...
I don't think so would guess they are in Grand Forks on the in door arena.
But knowing us they turned the heat off and playing on ice just in hopes to score a few points. lol
Did some reading about the valves sticking in the flathead ford. Sound like more work, maybe have to pull head and intake.
I got the valve moving but it wont fully close. So i soaked it again and left it for the night.

Damn that was quick work Dave.
You even got the grill blackouts and tail stripe done today.

'66 was a good year
What my '66 looked like when dad had it, sans the whitewalls. 4v 289 factory 4 spd.
Is that a ranchero??

Yup. That one is even de-badged like I had mine done.
Ford was always my close second to mopar.
If I didn't have mopars or weren't able to get them when I did, I would have gone after Fords. I'd have mavericks and torinos now.
My favorite ranchero is the 72. I think it's a one year only design.
That's badass

57-59 they were Fairlane. 60-65 Falcon. 66 well, 1/2 Falcon 1/2 Fairlane. 67-68 Fairlane which introduced the big block option
. 69+ Torino. If I come across the right '67 with a big block, I may just make it my own. One of my superintendent's company pickup was a '78? Ranchero with a 460 in it.

My childhood best bud had a '57 just like this
with Torq Thrusts on it.
We traded Rancheros one night, my '66 for his '57.
"You coulda told me every Chevy in town was gonna call me out. Sheesh."

1957 was a good year for Ford.
I am sitting here Googleing every year of Ford cars, year by year and feeling so much love for cars of all kinds.
This caught my eye, that is just gorgeous

There was a 2 door Ranch Wagon in '57 .. Way cool.
Well, the Dodge Brothers made parts for Ford Motor Company in the old old days.

I looked it up.
The 2 door wagon is cool but for some reason it just isn't smooth to my eye.
I like the 4 door wagon
They have these over there. I wish these were easier to find in middle AmericaIn Norwegian Station Wagon is Stasjonsvogn.
Good evening by the way.
