The Ford Barn

Unsolicited shout out. My '29 standard coupe came with a modern shock set on the car and as many will know , the ride is pretty stiff with such a light car with the tube type shocks. I contacted Bob after seeing his ad on the swap section of the 'barn and purchased a set from him along with the front and rear arms. The rebuilt originals looked good and after installing them I took a ride over smooth as well as rough roads. The ride was smooth and comfortable. But those who have made the switch know this but it was a pleasure to have the better, smoother ride. Bob was great to work with. Shipping was quick and although they're pricey, $1200 per set, I consider it an investment in keeping Clarissa the Coupe as original as possible.
