Billy Powell’s 36 Ford

By Austin Speed Shop | November 18, 2009

Billy Powell of Houston, TX sold his gorgeous 54 Chevy magazine cover car with the determination to find a new project that would be a solid platform for a traditionally styled early to mid 50’s era custom.  He did just that.  Billy delivered to Austin Speed Shop one of the cleanest bodied 1936 Ford 3 window coupes that we’ve ever seen.  Even though it’s already a nice car, to Billy, nice isn’t good enough.  Over the next year, we will help Billy take this car to the next level.  Phase One will include lowering it, perfecting the stance, and giving the interior some help.  Future plans include upholstery work, a mild chop, different bumpers, a fresh set of wheels, tires, and hubcaps, and more.   We’ll keep you posted with progress.  Come check it out Thanksgiving weekend at the Houston Autorama where it will be on display with phase one completed.
