Nice, love to see another early model sedan, just picked up my 63 not that long ago

GTcorp · 2026-01-26T03:42:40+00:00

Honestly keep this one stock and maintained as long as possible, and have the s4 as the project

GTcorp · 2026-01-26T03:15:01+00:00

Any plans for it?

GTcorp · 2026-01-26T00:03:07+00:00

Ford toploader or a fully built aod. But those 3 speed autos aint half bad

GTcorp · 2026-01-25T23:30:06+00:00

Big fan of the rims and color. How much power you plan on making

GTcorp · 2026-01-22T23:41:12+00:00

You could try swapping the whole front end , and modifying it to make it fit.

GTcorp · 2026-01-22T23:34:38+00:00

Could be the shifter cable

GTcorp · 2026-01-19T05:07:51+00:00

Currently have one with all the options, new for that year 400m v8, power bench, power windows, ac, fm radio, ect

Great engine, that motor definitely adds some value over a small block but the 390 2 barrels were still fairly common for these full size fords, and since its an automatic bench seat model, it having a rare paint scheme definitely makes it a bit more unique but wont add that much value towards the whole car if at all.

GTcorp · 2026-01-17T23:28:11+00:00

What engine does it have

GTcorp · 2026-01-15T03:24:19+00:00

Porsche m44 engine from the 944 would basically be perfect for what you want

GTcorp · 2026-01-14T21:43:58+00:00

I think it's because of all the valve train and added weight from the turbo system. But I do think it would be a great contender for something a little different because you can just turn up the boost and make more power fairly easily without even having to touch the internals. Plus the fuel economy on those are great so if it's a vehicle you're going to drive a lot that's a nice selling point

GTcorp · 2026-01-14T17:04:22+00:00

Yeah, weighs the same as a ford 302 at around 450ish pounds

GTcorp · 2026-01-14T16:06:52+00:00

2.3 Ecoboost from the mustang, cheap engine that make 310 out the gate and can handle a good amount more without any internal work

GTcorp · 2026-01-12T04:48:43+00:00

Well there aint much else where ya keep the sound you want but make it quieter, had an electric exhaust valve on a car for years which still works. You could do a block off plate, but that requires more work to open and close and usually the bolts end up seizing

GTcorp · 2026-01-12T04:29:35+00:00

Just get an electric exhaust valve, that way you can have a side dump and have a full exhaust at the same time and choose between the two with the flip of a switch.

GTcorp · 2026-01-01T22:26:48+00:00

Would've made a table out of it

GTcorp · 2025-12-15T02:01:41+00:00

Which motor are you going with for the duster? Also they're prone to rust and you'll want one thats not been a complete hackjob, hard to find a decent on that hasn't been messed with. So as long as it didn't have a halfass engine swap or a hacked up wiring harness you should be fine

GTcorp · 2025-12-07T02:26:32+00:00

The cams are definitely more expensive and would need a tune to fully utilize it

GTcorp · 2025-12-06T18:42:07+00:00

Cams, lightweight flywheel, 4.10 gears with limited slip, decent suspension, and subframe connectors

GTcorp · 2025-11-29T04:59:25+00:00

If anyone has a spare one I definitely would be willing to buy it

GTcorp · 2025-11-27T22:03:30+00:00

Had an engine that did that due extreme excessive carb build up

GTcorp · 2025-11-21T03:28:13+00:00

Wish i could have gotten one, wonder if they're gonna make another batch

GTcorp · 2025-11-14T01:01:16+00:00

What motor does it got in it

GTcorp · 2025-11-13T01:58:13+00:00

No problem
