Great picture Jeff!
I'm putting some more go fast parts on my black supercharged Y-Block sedan right now. Hopefully we can go for a ride in it this year at Bob's!

Thanks Pat!
Thanks All!
Did those for the fella who owns my ride is me......
He gave them out at the Detroit Autorama...
He just told me to do whatever... hahaha
Pat.... real good to see you and Krista at the Texas Round Up....your brother too!
The kids are beautiful.
Fellas... Pat and his brother have a series of KILLER 57 fords.....
Pat is my new best friend.... ha hahah ha.
AND.....I have not forgotten about doing some art for .....whatever is needed(shirts,etc,etc)
I was suppose to meet Tom in Detroit..... that was a very hectic weekend..... the mags had me on assignment and running.....
I promise as soon as the next few weeks clear....I will throw something together.... We have a group of guys that are into different 57 fords here...some Fairlanes,300's,rags,wagons,retracatbles,gassers,etc,etc...
An image needs to fit all 57 fords.....I have been thinking of this and maybe something very Ford graphic may be in the mix.......
Holy crap...I would love a t-shirt and copy to frame of my 'wagon!
Looking forward to see what you mean by this...
"An image needs to fit all 57 fords.....I have been thinking of this and maybe something very Ford graphic may be in the mix......."
Rock it!
one for the brain storm..........
Yes, gasman!
I have been looking for a tshirt like that...hard to find anything with the Ford shield. Only used in the 50s?
I wanted to put the Ford shield fender emblem (56 Tbirds) on my oil filler cap, but hard to find and expensive at about $100 for the chrome frame and plastic insert. The fender emblem would fit perfect. I have settled so far for a hat pin I found at a gift shop in Virginia City, NV for $7.
I have been collecting Rat Fink tshirts and keep asking them for a 57 Ford and 'wagon versions as I buy and talk to them at car show events like the Grand Natl Roadster Show. They usually have a booth at the events at the LA County Fairplex. So far, I have only found a 50(?) Ford Woody and the art work of The Rat of it isn't as good as others. The graphic could be better.
The '56 Chevy Rat Fink shirt gets some attention from people walking behind me. Much better art work! When women comment, I have to say..."Relax, my wife bought it for me and we have been married 27 years."
Rob, how about using the hubcap insert from a 56 Ford, can't be very expensive.

Zap...
I thought about it and looked at them...but it didn't "do it" for me like the fender emblem. Might have to revisit that thought!
I also thought about the Y-block "V8" gold glove box emblem and older Ford V8 emblem...but I am not using a Y-block! The 50s Ford crest needed the nod.
Believe there might still be a 51 ford hood emblem lying around in my junk pile, will look. There are many other ones used on dashboards thru-out the 50s in various sizes. Will check to see what might still be here........

The hood emblem is too big for the oil filler cap! (looked at that, too)
This t-shirt is on eBay
Robhaer, I was thinking of the emblem you wanted for your filler cap when I picked this out of a box of stuff today. I don't know what the emblem was in this piece (crown vic?maybe somebody knows) but it might have been the size you were looking for if you ever see one of these.
I am looking for this bezel...

Perfect...but pricey.
