As long as it has a Ford engine. I don't want to see another bowtie engine in these cars.

I know I may be in the minority on this, but that's my opinion and I'm sticking to it.

I agree, it pains me to see a really nice Deuce with a Chevy 350 in it. I can't tell you the number of them I've come across that look great until you have a peek up front. These days it's getting to be less and less of an excuse. Put in a fuelie 5.0 and AOD and off you go. Speaking of street rods, was at my local cruise in on Saturday and saw probably the nicest 36 Ford coupe ever. It rode on steelie wheels with hub caps, big ’50s whitewalls and had the most gorgeous plum metallic paint. And under the hood it had a crate 302. Clearly there are at least some guys that agree with us.

The theory of the bowtie engines is the size. The Chevrolet engine is smaller package, therefore, easier to use. That being said, I definetly agree with yall. I have seen some nice 32's only to find them raped with a small block Chevrolet. It is a travesty.
