Re: Yes, they are still out there!!! That really looks like a beauty, old restoration? Do you know the history? tell us more.

Re: Yes, they are still out there!!! Last owner purchased(father) in 1960 and passed away, one son inherited and drove until 82 or so, it was parked in a barn on property and then barn torn down, moved to garage, stored there until I looked at several years ago. Next son inherited from brother's estate and that is all I know.

Re: Yes, they are still out there!!! Now that's a beautiful find!! I love seeing these old Fords being found and put back on the road. No restoration needed on that one. Get it mechanically sound, cleaned up cosmetically and drive it!!
