Default Frosty Ford Pic

I shot this old Ford about 3 winters ago. Its the 38 one of my uncles used to drive. I dragged it home as a parts car over 40 years ago.

Looking at the roof of the barn, it doesn't look too healthy

Yes, its getting a nasty sag in the ridge and it gets a little lower each year as the logs gradually decay. Those poplar logs have done well to last almost 110 years. Picture from this year from another angle here.

Ok, I need to get over there to look for a bumper bolt for the Merc so will check the 38 for hood trim.

Trim appears to be missing on the left side of the hood.
