The Ford Barn

50Frank · 10-05-2011, 09:07 PM

I didn't see an intro forum as some other boards have. So,
I am new here. Do not own an antique, classic, collectible or custom/ hotrod Ford - but I have been interested in Model T's and A's since I was a boy. And I hope/plan to get a Model A, preferably a pickup, next year. Too much drama in my life now with a job change and move to another state to do anything for several months. I have been playing with A.D. Chevy trucks for the past 22 years, but I hope I am still welcome here.

Just a follow-up. Since Oct '11 when I joined this forum I have been busy with life; buying a home and moving (again), starting a new job, along with some health and financial problems have not left much time or energy for another hobby car... Hopefully this year!

I have always loved all kinds of old cars and trucks, but lately I have gotten interested in 42-47 Ford trucks. Strange, huh? Especially since I have been a Chevy truck man for so long.

I think I would like to find a 42 half-ton with the 226 straight-6 and race it up the hill at Newport, IN this fall.

Thanks Joe. I like your 55 (right?) F100. Cool trucks. My best friend had a nice 56 a few years ago.
My wife still wants an A CCPU... we'll see.
