Hi Everyone. FrankWest, I'm a very lucky guy. The '35 I bought last year from a 52 year owner who wasn't really a Ford nut, he'd just got it as a young man and never stopped using it on occasion. It's an amazing example of Henry's design. He didn't change any mechanical things in the time he owned it, I don't think. It's got the original tranny and I don't think it's ever been redone. He was unaware/surprised when I pointed out it had a '37 block as he'd never changed the engine either.

It's worn out, but still chugs along in any condition I've tried to throw at it so far.
