Oldschool4x4 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Thought I'd post this one up, it has a good chance of holding my interest. First started this build in 1992, first model I ever cut the doors and trunk lid out. {And the last} Lost interest and its been in the box ever since. Well I glued the doors and trunk lid shut and now I will try to continue, wish me luck!! Mountainman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldschool4x4 Posted August 17, 2019 Author Share Posted August 17, 2019 Thanks Kevin. Snake, working on it, just haven't decided what engine to use yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TarheelRick Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Nice start on the Torino. As for an engine in the '56, just drop a 5.0 Coyote in there and call it perfect. The best of both worlds, a beautiful tri-five Chevy body and a beast of a Ford engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blasphemer!! You never put a Ford engine in a Chevy!! Although it is acceptable to put a Chevy or Mopar engine in a Ford!

StevenGuthmiller Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 I do have to say that in my opinion that huge blower absolutely destroys the clean look of that '55 Chevy! Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldschool4x4 Posted August 17, 2019 Author Share Posted August 17, 2019 Blasphemer!! Yer right, that beautiful Ford engine deserves better!! All kidding aside, I would never put a Ford in a Chevy.. That 56 is going to get a nailhead if I can find all the parts... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldschool4x4 Posted August 29, 2019 Author Share Posted August 29, 2019 Hey, that 56 has been sold?. And since we are in a big move right now, it may be months before I can get to ANY modeling. But I will be back?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
