Default snow pic

Finished this '30 Fordor about a month ago after a 5 yr. ground-up restore and couldn't resist a snow pic. Its not a great photo, but it looks beautiful to me! It sure didn't like getting back up the hill to its home in my shop! I am thankful I still have a son at home to serve as "pusher".

That's great pic, the snow sets off and highlights the car very well. The reflections on the side fit right in, no ripples either. Well done, photo and car.

It would be my honor to have you use it. This is the color combination it was when original, so I didn't think I could improve upon it.

Think about how much enjoyment you are going to get once the snow melts! Enjoy your new beautiful ride.

That is a beautiful car. Bill Barlow wrote me and suggested you submit that to the Restorer. I agree.

The workmanship is a credit to you. One of the best looking model A's I've seen, thanks for showing it.

Great Looking job. Encouraging to get my Sports Coupe finished. Get a 1000 miles on it and then you'll get rid of the Gremlins and on to some great touring.
