He's been working on that car for years now Dave.
Every time you think he's got it how he wants it, he finds some thing to improve on it. And he's got a site that he shows every step of the way too.
Last year he was breaking axles so he went from a 31 spline to a 35 spline.
I don't think he's broke another axle since, that stroke 351w that's now a 408 puts
out lots of torque. I think he runs a 4.33 gears with a chevy trany and a adapter plate.
He keeped breaking top loaders so he converted it over. Kurt
Here is Ricks site.

In our neighborhood, 2 blocks down the hill was a gas station that (to me) all the cool car guys hung out there. 32 coupes, 33 & 34 Fords as well, a sweet 56 Ford Beach wagon that was setup gasser...
How did you get hooked on cars?
