Guys:

OOPS, looks like I made a snap judgment about that Ranchero's front end.  But thanks for the clarification.  I, too like multiple carbs, tri-power, dual quads, log 6's, Webbers, etc.  If Paxton made a dual quad enclosure for my supercharger, it would be mounted as soon as possible.  Kind of like Bob Benter's great looking Lucas Oil advertisement E-code, F-code Fairlane 500 Club Victoria.

Yup, that's what is common show car trick at one time. all about adding judges points to your card.

Really hate picking someone's car apart, he has a big grin on his face and his car is road worthy and mine is just an ever growing parts pile. Plus I do like ''different'' and it fits that. Now is he a member here? If not, why?
Sorry it wasn't meant to pick the car apart. I'm not a show car person and had never seen that, so it seemed odd to me.

wasn't directed at you, just a general comment. the headrests looked odd to me so had to ask about them myself. no offense taken or meant.

I asked him if he was a member of any forums, he said he doesn't have time right now but maybe when he retires. There is a TON of bling in and on the car, that's why I said to him that he must have had it for a while, it would take a long time to gather all the little decorative items. Just look at the taillight lenses.

Meteor wagon, someone else's pics so don't know if the valve cover is for real.

I like that wagon. Is that a stock grill for a Meteor?

That Chero is a nice mild custom.... very very nice.
The wagon is beautiful too...although many go crazy for a Canuck Meteor front grill...I love a standard grill better.

Someone else's pics, bummer, 'cause I'd like to see better pix and/or know more about that T-Bird emblem on the valve cover.

Hiball, here's a couple of pics from yesterday, a Rideau 500 Meteor at the Vancouver car auction. Owner wasn't around and it will go on the block today (auction on internet also).

Thank you for the pictures, I'm not familiar with the Meteor, I think this is the first one I have seen.
