The Ford Barn

Hey folks! Just got back from the first drive of the year. i think this is about the 8th ride total since i received the car from Grandpa. It was so exciting!! I think my car hates my wife. I had it running and warming up for about 5 minutes and went to adjust the idle air. I asked my wife to get in and start it and the starter would not even move. I figured out I needed to sand the surface rust off the frame for the ground strap and it started right up. I told the wife that the car does not favor her at all. i havent told her different and dont plan to. I forgot what a head turner these cars are. Everyone that waved got a hello from the sparton!! Cant wait for the remainder of the summer and fall!

LOL!!!! Bill I could not stop laughing when I read that! She is a very lovely lady and supports me 110% with my obsession with the tudor but I find humor in asking her to do things that she is clueless about. She reminds me of a little kid sometimes. Always right next to me watching me work on it. She learned last year not to hook the plug wires to the spark plugs while the motor is running and always makes sure the right rear wheel is not chaulked before she trys to move it. These are all hilarious stories about her and the A model but she is learning.
