Re: radio repair?
You might want to ask any local HAM radio guys in your area if they might work on it. A local young HAM operator in my area helped me get my '50 Ford OMF radio going. His price for the repair - a...

Re: Hershey Crisis
If you took all those boxes of toy trains out of your car, you'd probably have room. Leave 'em on the side of the road. Pick 'em up on the way to York!

Re: Not everyone likes old Fords.......
Dittos on car dealers not being 'car' people. We had a pleasant experience at a local Ford dealership and ended up buying my daughter a used Mercury Milan, but when I tried to chat up the sales man...

Re: Am I the only one?
I try hard to put things back when I'm done a job. Tools need a home and when they're not back home with their family at the end of the job, they're considered 'orphans'. Orphans tend to get lost and...

Re: Inferiority Complex
There was once a post, I think here, which asked something like "Did you find your car or did your car find you?" and I answered clearly the latter. I had no desire to own a classic, but when Dad...

Re: Something To Ponder...
Same here. I'm usually one of only a few flatheads on display. Too many shoeboxes with SBC's. If I see a stock flathead, I usually try to find and compliment the owner.

Re: Is your car planned or Fate?
Fate for sure. My '50 Crestliner adventures started with Dad's attempt to just 'dump money' into his car which turned into a disaster. Once the 'professionals' had their turn in butchering the...

Re: My Grandfather And His Tools...
I've got three girls and I still have problems with them walking away with my tools.
When I find a tool lying around outside its designated area I call it an "orphan" tool.
