I prefer customs and street rods with the same brands of engines they came from the factory with, But any Chevy with a non-chevy always gets a grin from me due to the 99.99% of Ford rods suffering the embarrasment of GM power under their hoods. One of the neatest doubletake inducing setups I've seen in a rod was a 302 Ford motor with custom adapters holding on CHEVY embossed chrome valve covers. I've also seen a Ford rod with a Chevy engine and phonied up FORD valve covers. (Boooo! Hisss!) Even better was a 30-something Chevy custom with a complete Dodge drivetrain and suspension transplant. But I've never, ever seen a Chevy custom or rod with Ford power, but a large number of all makes will have a Ford 9" rearend, or clone thereof. |
