Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car Two hoods equal one canoe....

Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car Those hoods sure were good for sledding! Actually the 40 sure was a fine vehicle.

Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car Hi Ron, when you git-r-bought, come to Ohio 4 a road trip and gimme a ride.
Love them 2 door sedans. Heck i'd trade my 52 Vic even up for one. mike |
Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car Hi, Ron,
Really like that 40' Ford dealer promo you found!! Thanks for posting!!! P.S. kind of makes my '39 seem like a "piker"! |
Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car Great video. Gloves on all the ladies. And what is the battery condition indicator? Thanks for posting. Mike

Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car I ran right down to the Ford dealer, but they acted like they didn’t know what I was talking about? I guess they haven’t arrived here in Seattle yet?

Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car Talk about skinny.! I had 2 girls & my buddy in the front seat of my beautiful blue std coupe when I rolled it 3 times ,sure flattened it down almost to the dash. The girls being in the middle ended up under the dash. My friend & I were still in the seat. They wanted to go for a hotrod ride. They got one that they talked about years later. No was hurt thank the good lord on that one.
Some time later I was in s Cal & mom called me. She was cashing my dads paycheck & the market & the cashier ask if she was BOBs mom .She said yes why & she sez OH I was with him when he rolled the 40. My folks never knew what I did most of the time. Sorry Ol Ron for hi-jacking your post I just couldn't resist. I had another one that when the tornado came thru town I flattened the building the car was parked in. We hammered it out with sledge hammers. |
Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car What saddens me the most is:: All the cars I had as a kid that I either junkes or sold for oea nuts, To name just one. a 32 roadster complete grear sheet metal all the running gear Hyd brakes, less engine 250 bucks. I was asking more but nobody wanted it.it.To name but a few.

Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car Ron, don't beat yourself up!!! That was a long time ago and the '32 roadster was a lot less desirable then, sans the engine, than it is today.
We could buy a semi-decent 30's and early 40's running flathead Ford in my part of NJ in the early 50's for $25 bucks....and I went through a few!! Your $250 was big $$$ in those days where I lived!!! |
Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car Ron do what makes you happy and brings joy. Hey some guys love a old AMC gremlin. A 40's ford is no gremlin. Enjoy!

Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car Don't do it Ron! Them Fords aint been no good since they went to that sliding gear transmission in '28!

Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car I just bought my uncles 40 Mercury which has been in the family for over 70 years, not much different than a Ford, but longer wider and a 95 hp motor, still weak :) I enjoyed the video very much, Ive been a Chev man my whole life so a learning curve has began with the Merc, I just replaced that stupid helmet distributor with a Crab style Mallory and upgraded to a 6 volt alternator, getting ready for a big trip to Canada

Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car So Ron when are you going to pick one up?
|
Re: I;m thinking ov buying a new car Don't feel bad Ron, in 1970 I restored and sold a split window vette for 2k. You could buy them all day long for 1800 and I thought I was making a great deal. Sigh, we all have those deals.
