And finally the rest of what I took.The 39 & 40 coupes are untouched originals.The 49 Merc woody has 15K orig miles also orig paint. Plus my 36 5W that we drove about 800 miles round trip.Has a racy 59AB and got 16 MPG on best leg with a 4000 ft pass to go over.We got 3rd place in Touring A class.Not bad for having weak springs.

I heard that 265 early V8's showed up.It was my first time to a Nat'l meet with a car.Supposedly 199 cars were on the cruise to Zion.The St George police blocked 1 signal and the oncoming lane of the I 15 so we could all get on going north without incident.It was the maiden voyage for the 36 and could have made it on 2 tanks of gas from Hesperia,CA to St George,UT and same on return,about 320 mi ea way.Did a steady 65-70 MPH.My 59AB was built by Bill Robinson.Its .030 over with a std Merc 4" crank and a Potvin 3/8 super cam,vintage Sharp heads and intake & 2 - 97's.Fryer water pumps.Whitney alt conversion in a 39 std generator.Rear is 3.55.More details on the meet at www.earlyfordv8.org ,click on news.

Hey Deuce, Does your '36 have a dropped axle?

 

[37fatfender]

Is that event held in ST. George every year?

 

[deuce lover]

Mike ,Yorba Linda, Yes it has a dropped axle and reversed eye front spring.I also removed 2 leaves from it(the 2nd because it wraps around the ends of the main and 3rd one from the top).

37 Fatfender, It was the Western Nat'l Early Ford V8 meet which is held in different places although the next 2 years no one has stepped up to host it.St George V8 Club was the host this year.
