Yeah from all of the info I have gotten there can be no doubt that the car came with a 352 and someone put on the twin 4 bbl manifold and carbs. Oh Well.


That's an oucher. But then, the '56 352 is plenty potent. It's STILL a Hot Rod Clipper. I wonder if the dual quads are '55 or '56. I've heard there's quite a difference, because in '55 the primaries were larger than the secondaries, and in '56 they used the more typical small primaries/large secondaries setup.

What's your source for "all the info [you] have gotten," if I might ask. And are there other tidbits. This is still the "mystery car," given the apparent originality of the Executive or Senior front clip.
