That thing rocks. I've always wanted to do a '57 Ford school bus with an FE transplant with OD and modest gears so I could run 75 MPH with no problems. I can see the faces now with the '57 rolling down on down I-77.
I forget all the engine available, but I remember a 302 being available in '56 HD Trucks. I don't remember what it was based off of though. Ford had lots of uncommon engines in the fifties, when was the last time you saw a Mercury 383?1990 Country Squire - weekend cruiser, next project

You tryin' to make me want to downgrade to 15" wheels and dig up a grey interior?
Bet mine's faster.
Incidentally, I notice that car has no badge on the sail panel ... perhaps some of the stunt cars were not originally slicktops and the badges on the rest were removed to match?
Also interesting that it has a split bench, and that the steering column trim looks like it was not originally grey.
Dig the trunk gadgetry.... gotta wonder what it actually does, as I don't recall seeing inside the trunk during the movie.
