Interesting theory. I find the styling of the 55-56 Ford and Chevy to be equally timeless, but the small block is an all around better motor and I believe much of the tri 5 success is the 45 year longevity of the sbc .
@@TriStarWorkshop Im past 70 and back in the day I bought many 55 and 56 fords for less than $100, And always swapped in a FE, A 352 with a stick and 411 gears . I could give the 327 chevys a good race. We still have a 55 two dr ranch wagon. And We have a 1962 T Bird 390 engine thats slated to reside in the wagon. We have video on our channel.
That's really neat.👍😎. Good luck with it ,hope you get carb ,etc sorted and best wishes from jolly old England 👍😎Pete 🤓
Cool car!
This thing is awesome! We should do a project car challenge this spring.
I wanna enter Brian in this spring contest to clean up the Dodge.
@@karissapeel1390 not quite ready to tackle that one. I think the vette or blazer. Power tour?
I think the 3 dude car challenge is a winning formula!
Hope your still having fun with this bad ass sedan!
@@gordsnell7206 it sold several Years ago to an older fella who had one in his youth.
Bought a 55' Fairlane 2 Dr post for 75' bucks in 1986 when I was 17 miss that car now
nice car ! just needs some TLC keeps us updated ! Ive got a 55 love it
Check out my other video "Gasser Showcase" for the latest update and a more detailed walk-around of the car.
Yeah but they didnt.beautiful car though
My opinion if Ford had came out with the FE in 1955 the tri five chevys would not be as popular as they are today.
