The Ford Barn

Have had mine for about 10 years now, and would never own a Model A without one. I also have the 26% and 3.78 rear end, which I find about ideal for Southern California. It is so easy to use.....basically like a much needed 4th gear. I use it all the time, even on our surface streets. After I hit 40+ mph, I shift into OD. On the freeway, I like to cruise effortlessly at 60 mph, but the real fun is using it at around 45/50......the car is so quiet it is amazing. And for driving in our local mountains, 2nd OD is perfect. The added lever has never bothered me, as I never seat 3 in the front seat. Bullet proof and extremely well built........
