Had a fella call me and said his brother passed, heard from the Wisconsin v8 chapter that I'm in Arizona, wanted to sell me the brothers 42 Ford. I put the trailer on, drove to Cave Creek, extracted the car which sat since 92, Its cleaned up, put a battery in, fired right up.Origional factory paint, 65K miles.
Heres some photos,
Merry Christmas, John Stimac

John,
Nice car! 42’s are rather rare due to low production numbers.

Dang, that is one Merry, Merry Christmas! Holy COW! OK, a car kept in a solid building that long is gonna be good, but in a building like that in the state of Arizona! Dry, dry,dry.....

Nice car, I have never liked the 42 grille, wasn't too fond of the 41 grille either. But that is a very nice car

Wow, that car cleaned up nice! And to think that there are poor, sad mixed-up individuals out there who prefer to leave a nice car dirty!

OK enough about the wonderful 42 extracted from it's long sleep. I want to know about the young lady waxing on the car. How did you manage to get someone so young to admire an old Ford? I am jealous of you and I have hope that someone will give our flatty's some attention when we are gone.
