Thanks for many years of help!
Happy/sad day for my 36 Coupe that my father bought back in 1977. My wife and I have decided to move south to Florida and my cars are not making the trip. Sold the coupe and the new owner is picking up next Thursday. I have so enjoyed restoring, driving and telling people about out car. Flatheads will always have a special place in my heart for ever. Thank you all for kindness, expert advice and just general fun conversation. I have told the new owner about the Ford Barn and if he needs help on anything he can find it here! Flatheads Forever! Tom

That is one beautiful car Tom. I'm sure the new owner is very pleased with it. You should be forever proud of your hard work. Congrats on your move.

Re: Thanks for many years of help!
Safe travels and sounds like lots of folks head down there. Should be plenty of like minded guys to share the hobby with even without ownership. Heck, maybe by next year one of them will rent you a carport to keep your roadster in.

Re: Thanks for many years of help!
Thanks for the kind regards to the Barn - we have a lot of great people on here, so it is nice to hear the words. You had a beautiful 36' . . . get yourself settled in Florida and get back into an early V8!

Very grateful to have the Fordbarn, appreciate all of the kind words! Even though my Flathead will be gone I still enjoy reading the posts and offering any help I can from what I have learned over the years!
