These are pictures of our “Family Car Club” The two pictures showing the four cars were taken a couple of years ago but we still have all of the cars except the flamed 55 Ford truck. It is now in the fair city of Boise Id. The 55 Ford truck is my sons and he has since moved and taken the truck to Boise with him. It is a 350/350 with a 9” rear and a tilt front end. He built this truck while he was still in high school. It can still be seen from time to time cruising the streets of Boise.
The black 1966 Chevelle SS and the 1956 Nomad are my wife’s cars. The Chevelle is an SS 396/four speed car. Vehicle is complete and running and is used to go to local shows. The Nomad is the car that our three kids (one boy twin girls) grew up with, went on vacation in, and generally got exposed to the car hobby in. This particular vehicle will be my next project as it is in need of a total redo.
The 29 Ford sedan is my 7 year project and is now complete. This car was built totally at home in our garage from a very rough body that had been cut into five pieces. All metal fabrication, welding, machine work, body work, paint,wiring and 90% of the upholstery were done at home by me. On this particular car I changed from the normal combinations that are generally used in street rods and put in a 4-cyl, Ford engine that is fuel injected, turbocharged, and has an intercooler. Engine is backed up with a T-5 five speed and an 8” Ford rear axel. This car is nothing but pure fun and at today’s gas prices cheap to operate.
