This 1963 Ford Custom 300 is a serious street/strip-style build
with old-school Ford performance attitude, 427 side-oiler power,
and a purposeful two-door sedan look. Finished in cream with a red
interior, S/S graphics, hood pins, 427 fender badges, and American
Racing Torq-Thrust wheels, this Custom 300 has the right visual
punch for a drag-inspired Ford build.
427 Side-Oiler V8 with 4-Speed Manual
Power comes from a 427 CID Ford FE side-oiler V8 upgrade equipped
with dual Holley four-barrel carburetors, MSD ignition, Le
Mans-style crankshaft and connecting rods, Ford Racing pistons, a
Thunderbolt-style flat-tappet camshaft, and 2.5-inch dual
exhaust.
The 427 is paired with a Ford Toploader 4-speed manual
transmission, Centerforce clutch, and Hurst shifter. A Ford 9-inch
rear end with 4.11:1 Detroit Locker helps put the power down, while
front coil springs, rear leaf springs, and traction bars support
the street/strip setup. Four-wheel drum brakes provide the stopping
power.
Cream Exterior with Red Interior
The cream exterior is finished with S/S graphics, hood pins, 427
fender badges, good paint, good trim, and a period drag-racing
look. American Racing 17-inch Torq-Thrust wheels with 215/45R17
front tires and 255/50R17 rear tires give the car a strong
stance.
Inside, the red interior keeps the performance-focused theme with
an AM radio, column-mounted tachometer, under-dash gauges, racing
lap belt, T-handle shifter, and dash-mounted switch for street or
drag race operation.
Built around 427 Ford side-oiler power, a 4-speed manual, Detroit
Locker rear end, and classic S/S-style presence, this 1963 Ford
Custom 300 delivers the raw street/strip character that defines
old-school Ford performance.
