The Ford Barn

Looking for some good wisecracks, but you can't use...and I quote.
-"Oh, isn't that cute"
-"What is that?"
-"Well yes, since you are a Man, I can see where you would think that is the normal size?

Let's get some of your best wisecracks

(Don't know why that top part reminders me of my honeymoon)

That was a great price, the quality looks nice.

Messiest garage on FordBarn !...I take that as a complement...Thank you

Now how about a zinger on the trunk.

jrelliott · 08-17-2021, 12:15 PM

Good looking trunk. Color match is close. Did you repaint it or was it that color when purchased?

If your wife kept your house like that you’d call her a divorcee! If you tried to sell that trunk for ten bucks you’d be lucky to attract a crowd of one person.

Nice rack, trunk rack that is...

Chuck Dempsey · 08-17-2021, 01:45 PM

Looks good to me. You just need to add a couple of items to either side to 'fill it out'... Maybe two square, black gas cans. One labeled 'gas, the other 'water'. Just a thought. Also, what is that other car sitting there?

jg61hawk · 08-17-2021, 01:48 PM

That trunk is so small it belongs on a TOYota!

An elephant would be embarrassed to have that trunk!!!

ronn · 08-17-2021, 03:10 PM

youve been trunked!

Oldgearz · 08-17-2021, 03:52 PM

Not trying to change the subject, but do you know the color name for the paint on the spare tire?

Bob-A · 08-17-2021, 04:32 PM

Cool!

I’ll give you $10 for that raggedy old ‘57 Chevy in the corner of your “messy” garage.

Thank you...Gentlemen all
Needed my dose of humor for the day

Back story: Been hitting the flea markets searching for a trunk for months/years, nothing even near what I'm looking for...ran across this little thing, said what the hell...I must be getting close

jg61hawk · 08-17-2021, 07:21 PM

For an old gal she's got a nice ass but her chest leaves a lot to be desired.

you guys are gonna get mad, but these trunks are so small, I don't know what you can carry in them....I doubt you keep greasy tools in them.

I've seen the same scenario with factory trunks on like Packards, including small pull-out drawers labelled "shirts" etc. I don't get it. Didn't most people travel longer distances by rail in that era?

31Tudor · 08-18-2021, 11:39 AM

You meant that they paid you $10.00 to take it away right?

There was a lot of travelling salesman who carried samples, stock and personal stuff for trips that lasted more than one day, sometimes weeks.

Messy garage? C'mon! There's nothing stacked on the hood or roof of that '57 Chevy. I can see the actual floor. Nothing has been tossed under the Model A.

mfirth · 08-21-2021, 12:27 PM

How many fleas came with it ?

mfirth · 08-21-2021, 12:30 PM

I wouldn't stack anything of value on a 57 ch--- don't like them.....

No you c’mon, a cat couldn’t walk thru there without getting hurt. That tells us what your garage looks like!

Thank you 40.
Both cars are driven All the time, everyday for the Model A, both cars run very well, and my garage looks used because I use it for what it's made for...turning wrenches, drinking beer, working on cars and having fun.
