- Our '53 has been in the family since 1955. Was my Great Aunt's, then my Grandparent's, then my parents' and someday mine (I have three sisters ;) ). She only has 70,110 miles on her and hasn't been licensed since the mid to late 70's and hasn't been driven since even before that...so...it's time to get it back on the road so my parents can enjoy it. We're rebuilding the 239 flathead, the Fordomatic trans, new brakes all around, converting to 12 volt, electronic ignition, all new lines, brake and fuel, all bearings, seals, and anything else that needs to be freshened up. I'm doing all the work as dad can't really climb under the thing and "wrench" much anymore, but he needs to be behind the wheel of her, there's no doubt about that. It's been in the shed for WAY too long...so here we go!!!
I've always been into cars and rods...Got started on muscle cars, ever since I was a kid. Love 'em to this day. I think it all started with the Dukes of Hazzard...so then of course I started riding
