Default My car and I are back

My 1930 Tudor sat in the garage for the past four years. Recently, a friend who is a natural car whisperer got it running again.
I bought the car ten years ago and greatly enjoyed it for the first six years. This involved some serious repairs to the brakes, engine and electrical. My go-to place for help was right here at the Ford Barn.
I am now in a position to get back into the A world.
That's all for now -- I'm going for a drive.

I had a Doctor some years ago with a sense of humor, he would pull out a Veterinary glove, you know, the one you unroll up to your shoulder....

On another note, my flight instructors always said go to the female flight surgeon for your exams, they have smaller fingers..

Nice! I was active on Fordbarn for a few years over 15 years ago, sold our tudor and drifted off. Bought a roadster in 15 and visit regularly but post only occasionally. Great place for info and to talk with A folks!
