The Ford Barn

A few years ago I picked up
this AA Ford that had been
found in the hills of
Southern California …

It took a few years to gather
the parts together - the restoration
was a family affair - when part
of the family moved from
Southern California it could
no longer remain there …

That family restores just
about everything - including
that hit & miss engine that
made the trip from
California to Wisconsin
in the back of the truck …
