Re: They’re still out there ! Damn Ken that’s a wee beauty mate. I love original cars like that one. Enjoy.
Cheers Tony |
Re: They’re still out there ! Great find! My 40 Fordor has about the same history, mileage, one repaint, original interior. The previous owners had kept a small Motors record book that the first owner started using in 1940 to record gas purchases and maintenance. It has the very first fill up and entries up through 1972 when the car came east to Peterborough NH from Chicago.

Re: They’re still out there ! Nice score! It's in good hands.....keep those mobile museums rolling and you can now continue it's history...… Jot down all that info and throw it in the dash. I've probably said it several times, but grandpa kept a record in his glove box of everyone he ever took a ride in his 35 5w.....along with gas/tire ration decals and original papers about the war...

Re: They’re still out there ! Wow! It's beautiful, many safe, happy miles with it.

Re: They’re still out there ! Good score. Give it a wax job, change the oil if it needs it and drive it often. Probably a nice tight rattle free Ford.

Re: They’re still out there ! Green with envy here in the 'Evergreen State'.....

Re: They’re still out there ! Wow, great looking car, can you run the 1940 plates in your state?

Re: They’re still out there ! WOW great find!

Re: They’re still out there ! Congrats. A nice one. Finding something like this is a blast. I found a Model T that had been in someone's garage since the Mid 60's. Hard to believe that stuff like that is still out there, but it is.
