Default Old Ford bug bite

Hi All, I was a regular on the old Forum, and have only recently come back here. I have had other projects and interests the last couple of years, and not A. Here are some pics of what keeps me in the shop, and out of trouble. I love the old Fords! Anything old really. Anyone else?

A couple of more projects. The purple street rod is being reworked. It's all fiberglass, so NO Model A's were injured in the process. It's a 1980's project that was showing wear. It now has a 327 Chevy instead of a V-6, and all pearl paint. It's my wife's truck so it's modern.

Scott,

You said that you also like old things....I can sure understand that !

I have a number of old 78's from my collection and others. I have recorded them onto my computer and "cleaned them up" with software programs. They are now on CD's.

While I'm working on the car, I play them...1920's and early 1930's music.
My CD player is portable and makes for good driving music too in the Model A.

I also like to restore old radio's and have a number of old clocks that I have restored.......


Marc

Looks like your wife's ride would be great for passing Other cars out on the two lane.

Thanks all. Jim Baskin, I DO drive it quite a bit. It's all original except for a 60's paint job and new brakes all the way around. 43k miles and the old car smell.

Marc, that's great. Yes, I like to see old stuff saved and made new or just preserved. That would be a nice touch to have era music with the old cars.
