Sharp looking Ford. - you have done an excellent job of bringing it back to something you enjoy and are proud of. Lots of fun and enjoyment. I restored a 38 phaeton and the before description of yours fits mine before its restoration. Enjoy - you deserve it.

I put little visors on my '37 headlights to soften the relatively ugly accessory sealed beam conversion. Fortunately for you, your car is so good looking, it doesn't take away from the over all look.

I will have to scan my "before" pictures to post them. They weren't taken with a digital camera.

Hi Everyone, PHATBOY you might just use your phone to take a snap of your printed photos. I find it works as good or better than scanning them.
