It's been done. Thought I'd make a quick update. Love that they kept it looking old school.

I believe anyone should be able to do what they want with their own cars. I personally would never have anything in my Fords but a Ford engine. I have an acquaintance here in San Diego that put a camaro front suspension clip in a 57 Ford and dropped some kind of computer driven chevy LS whatever engine in it. Runs and drives amazing, but again for me just doesn't feel right.

Likely a $200,000+ build, (not to mention all the hours spent making the Chevy engine look like a Ford FE), and they probably used the chevy engine because "Chevys are cheaper"! I can certainly appreciate all the custom work on that car, but with so many viable Ford engines available, I just don`t get it.

   It's a shame, it was a nice clean 57 with a more than capable running gear already in it.

Just to make sure everyone understands, attitudes such as this one, "make haters want to change their depends" is a quick way to be banned from this forum.  Like it or not, this is a purist forum, is owned by me, and has no affiliations with any entity that would cause e to care if they try to cancel me for my opinions.  So, if you want to stir the pot, go hang out at an LS swap forum, because this one is not LS-swap friendly.

As I am not interested in any more LS swap nonsense on my forum, this thread is now locked.  Any further threads started will result in it being locked and the user banned.  Just a friendly reminder that LS swap talk will not be tolerated here.  Its your ride, convert it to electric if you want, but don't talk about non-Ford swaps here.
