Description of 1952 Ford Other customline |
intoclassics Store 1952 Ford Customline BARN FIND. THE CAR WAS STREET RACED IN THE 60'S. A GARAGE WAS BUILT FOR THE CAR IN 1971 AND THE CAR WAS PARKED DUE TO MANY SPEEDING TICKETS. THE CAR SAT IN THE GARAGE SINCE 1972 AND NEVER MOVED UNTILL 2014 WHEN I BOUGHT IT. MOTOR IS A "RARE" BUILT DUAL QUAD (2 X 4 CARBS) M 33 . 368ci. 1957 LINCOLN . MERCURY TURNPIKE CRUISER. MOTOR. BORG WARNER 4 SPEED( I BELIEVE FROM A 1965 OR SO FORD WITH A 390 MOTOR) . THE OEM WIRE WHEELS I WAS TOLD ARE FROM A 1957 T BIRD. FRENCHED HEADLIGHTS (LEADED) . OEM CONTINENTAL KIT (LEADED WITH SWING AWAY SPARE). LOUVERED HOOD. DUAL SPOTLIGHTS. SOME LINCOLN TRIM ADDED AND OTHER TRIM AND LIGHTS ADDED. ALOT OF ADDED FEATURES FROM A 1957 LINCOLN ADDED (AIR CONDITIONING UNIT IN TRUNK) AND MORE . CONVERTED TO 12 VOLT. SEE PICS !!! THE ENGINE IS VERY RARE . WAS ONLY BUILT FOR 2 YEARS . INSTALLED IN THE LINCOLN AND MERCURY TURNPIKE CRUISER . USED BY BILL STROPPE RACING DIVISION FOR NASCAR WITH A FULL RACE MAKEOVER CREATING 335 HP. HENCE THE M335 ON THE INTAKE. I DONT HAVE THE M335 VALVE COVERS. THE EXTREMELY RARE INTAKE AND VALVE COVERS SELL FOR THOUSANDS ALONE. The mileage I'm sure is 17. 98 but probably 117. 98. CLEAR TITLE IN HAND ISSUED IN 1964 !!!!! THE INTERIOR IS GEORGOUS. FLOORS ARE REMARKABLE. THE ONLY RUST FOUND IS PICTURED IN THE ROCKER PANELS. THE CAR WAS RUNNING GOOD WHEN PARKED THEN THE CARBS WERE REMOVED AND MISPLACED SO NEW REBUILT CARBS WERE INSTALLED. THE CAR TURNS OVER GOOD BUT DON'T QUITE START. PROBABLY STUCK RINGS . CHECKED THE COMPRESSION AND HALF OF THE CYLINDERS HAVE LOW COMPRESSION. COULD PROBABLY SOAK THE CYLINDERS AND IT COULD FREE THE RINGS.
