The Ford Barn

Hi all I'm Jim Glass from NJ. Picking up a 1929 Model A on Saturday from a lady who is 82 and has owned it since she was 10. It's not as good AS IT SOUNDS. She drove it on a farm when she was a kid, painted it with a brush at 16 and the chrome is all painted silver. Good news...it runs and was maintained because she LOVES IT. She recently still drove it in parades etc.

So here I'll be now with you guys and gals seeking Model A advice. I'm a Studebaker guy. I have a Hawk I've owned for 40 years and have been actively involved Studebakers all my adult life. Looking forward to this car as my wife grew up with nothing Fords. I'm told this is a Roadster and it has a rumble seat. I'll get some pics ASAP. Looking forward to this forum. I've read it over for some time and you seem great (just like Stude people!).
