Dove manufacturing,performance

Post by vicegrip »

It looks like Dove is calling it quits as Jim Dove is in failing health. Jim and his company took it upon themselves to reproduce rare and exotic Ford performance FE parts of the glorious 60's. I used to hang around his display at the Columbus swap.Very impressive to say the least. Jim was a very engaging guy and when you got him going,could tell stories for hours about Ford's racing history and the drivers and mechanics that rewrote the books. I bought some parts from him but when I could halfway afford to build the motor I always dreamed about...gone.
I wish Jim well. He is a true icon in the Ford FE world.

I read over on the FE forum that his son may keep it going. I'm sure that is back burner with his Dad's condition.

There's nothing like the sound of a pushrod V8 singing at the top of her lung's.
