Got these pics at a car show on Manchaca Rd. I had originally identified it as a Ford but Kustom55 corrected me. Thanks!
This 1953 Ford has a V8, the last year of the venerable side-valve flathead Ford V8 making 109 hp, reaching back to 1932, finally replaced the next year by a modern OHV 239 cu. in.
The International R Series was made from 1953 to 1955.
At this year’s Lonestar Round Up.
Custom Car Crafters is a very high quality fab and body shop, as well as repairs. Link at right.
This Nash-Healey Le Mans Coupe could be any year 1953 to ’55, but likely 1954. If this car is stock, it has an American Nash engine of 252 cu in, an aluminum head, and American-made twin Carters carbs
Made only two years, 1953 and 54. More info here.
