I read the fourms first (model T, A and early V8). Then I check out the swap page (model T, A & early V8). I also check back several time as day.

Gumpy, if you have some wide five brake drums laying around, I'd be glad to pay postage!

I am in the Early V8 forum daily asking the silly questions tha Gumpy and Dave graciously and patiently answer. I also check the classifieds at least once a day. Once a week or so I catch up on the Model A forum since I have a 32 4 banger.

I just hang out here in the early V8 forum so I can stalk Vic Piano and John, JM 32 Sedan.

Oh!!! You caught me!!! Will you be coming down to Florida for the Billetproof show at Don Garlits in Ocala the weekend of March 17th? We’re holding the Florida “Barner’s Bash” that same weekend and we’ll be at Billetproof on Saturday the 17th. Hope to see you there. Vic

I did read your thread regarding it, and it does sound like a blast. It all really depends on the weather. It's so tough to leave Michigan in March on a road trip without heat and defrost. Been thinking maybe I'll fly in and ride with folks with empty seats.....and no roofs.

I will see you in mid-Jan though, just not sure of the exact dates yet.

Sounds like a plan, there's room in the '39 Zephyr and it's still topless!!!

Used to spend most of my barn time on the early V8, especially when i was working on a 51 F3, some on the street rod. Been spending more now on the A section. Have a couple other brand trucks I'm working on and have found a good forum for those. This barn doesn't feel the same as the old barn did but I still visit regularly.

I click on the new post button and get the feed for all threads. For me the A and early v8 stuff is the most interesting.

You can get a taste of the "old FordBarn" if you go to ChevyBarn.com and click on the non-Chevy page. Vic

I'm with you Barry. In a way, it's like asking my father or grandfather a question and getting a real life experience answer

Most of my Barn time is spent right here. Learning, visiting and relaxing, usually while eating. I check the classifieds when I get some project money.
