'49 Custom Ford on PowerBlock!

This weekend on PowerBlock Courtney showcases this gorgeous ’49 Ford sedan. It’s nosed, decked and shaved with Frenched headlights. Owner Tony Collins dropped in a modern three valve 370 horsepower Ford V-8 that sits on a Mustang Two front clip. It packs a five speed and he narrowed the rear end ten inches and it rolls on Foose wheels with Nitto tires. The interior is equally cool with Beige ultra-leather seats with two-tone inserts by Kaze Williams at Pope’s Hot Rods. Tony uncluttered the dash which now houses only the Haneline gauge cluster and Vintage Air. He also shaved the drip rails before wrapping it all in PPG “Hellfire Red”.

See it on PowerBlock June 22nd & 23rd!

All they build on extreme 4x4 is buggies.  Build something different like a truck or a car on a 4x4 chassis
