well.........for this build, a small block will be more than enough, and besides, I don't have to hang another bracket for power steering with a small block....

Re: 59 Chevy Build
A '32 Ford with a small block, a blower, AND a stick.......man, that's my dream car!

I WILL own one someday, and it'll be a '32 thru '34 Ford coupe, fenderless, nasty motor, stick, Halibrand spindle mounts in the front, 16X11 Halibrand Sprints in the rear.

Please post more shots of the progress!!! Although this is a Chevy truck site, I'm sure folks won't mind.........

Re: 59 Chevy Build
Yeah, I'm with chevyrestoguy. I've always had a weak spot for the '34 ford myself, with the styling advancement from the '32. Although i would not turn away a '32 either.

So now that the cat is outta the bag, your going to hafta produce more pictures and details.
