The Ford Barn

1930-fordor · 01-11-2017, 08:18 PM

Hello to all.
I'm Mark
I live in North Carolina and my dad lives is in Spokane.
His birthday is coming up on the 19th of Jan.
I was asking to see if I could get a fellow model A'er to go and give him a short ride around the block in an model A for his birthday? He will be 74 and doing good.
He lives close to 1205 East Lyons Ave. To give you an idea of his location if that helps.
I realize there has been a bit of snow and bad weather there, but hopefully things might clear up.
A four-door would be great, as that was his first car but any model would be fine.
If any of you could be so kind to help with this, it would make his day and mine.
Please PM me if you think you could help.

This might could grow into something big & special,
where we pull together as model A people to help out other model A family members around the country.

I would sure do it if I lived in Spokane. I hope he would trust my driving since I am some older than your father.

Thanks anyway.
I'm hoping someone will be able to help

Why not contact one of the local Model A clubs? Waynep [/B]

You might try contacting a club in Spokane and see if they can help. You don't seem to be getting much response on the Barn. Inland Empire A's. seems to be one club in Spokane.

Thanks guys,
but I asked there first without response.
Or maybe just asking too much from a stranger?��

Maybe they're not as friendly as the southern folks.

I tried to seed response, but it must not have gone through.
i sent another PM hopefully it made it this time.
I'm pretty good with model a's but not so much with gadgets

Don, thank you so very much. Your friend Larry will be able to help me out with this birthday gift.
