Very Beginning of the 60 Starliner
mbrunson427:
Within the past few weeks I was able to get a single stall conditioned room in the barn set up to work on some things this winter. I'm admittedly pretty fussy about cold weather.
We have been collecting parts for the Starliner for about 2 years now it seems like. Its a hipo 352 car, black with black interior. With help from people on here I was able to locate the correct engine that actually date codes with the car very well. I will be taking all the windows out and stripping out the rest of the remaining interior. We'll take it to the blaster, and then over to a metal working shop. We visited the guys shop a couple weeks ago, he is incredibly talented, we'll only be using about a tenth of his ability with what this car needs (trunk floor and some body patches). https://tinelement.com/ The low drag jaguar on his site he built from scratch.
This is going to be a long-term deal and I'm fully prepared for it to take a while. Trying to put it back together as nicely and as correct as our skill allows us. Still searching for the dang carb and the air cleaner lid!! I've had some good leads, but haven't found anybody willing to part ways with the stuff they have. Any help with that would be much appreciated.

I just want the engine job! ;D
An all-time favorite of mine.....the 352/360 and the 375/390 were responsible for my dad's passion for the FE, which ultimately was responsible for anything and everything I have ever done with the FE.
I'm sure you will do the car proud!
