Working on the money part.

Also, would love to have a 1935 Roadster.

Jack calori's 36 three window as it sat on the cover of hotrod magazine from 1949

At the moment, I would stick with a 33 or 34 pick-up but I would search out and buy an older restoration of either year. In a perfect world it would sport a 36 LB engine, a 39 transmission and be absent of all body filler. Then I would sell what is tying up garage space and go for a drive. But realistically I will probably get back to work. Inch by inch, everything's a cinch!

I would love to have one of the 1937 RV's. One was for sale a few years back. Similar in some ways I would love to have one of the 37's that was very similar to the UPS trucks of today.

Almost any one of the too many that I've parted with over the years for lack of space or time for their restoration. Still, I've had more than my fair share.

Robert/Texas · 04-03-2017, 10:00 AM

My favorite, '34 roadster. My reasons:
I like the way they look and how they drive.
I was born that year.
I had one back in the 50's, 1954-1960.
I have one now, owned 23 years.
My wife and I are taking it on the Kerrville V8 Texas Tour latr this week.

I know jealousy is not a "becoming" trait but I for one is jealous of your assemblage of V8 Fords (that I have seen and or seen pictures you have posted here). I do not know your collection in its entirety but from what I have seen I hope that one day I can come close to your workmanship in restoring such!!!

DavidG · 04-03-2017, 11:37 AM

Sorry for the duplication of posts.

Robert,

Thanks for your extremely generous compliment.

"The one that got away" seem to always be the "The One" you always look back at. Case in point (and a car I'm sure you are VERY intimate with) was one like pictured.....We chased one like it for several years but our mistake was never taking "cash in hand" and sealing a deal right on the spot, the final trip up to check on the car and it was gone!!!!!

I keep this picture in my desk here at work more of reminder and a driving force for the future & my best friend always told me "SEAL THE DEAL, TAKE YOUR PURCHASE & LEAVE!!!! Sorry my Nikon over exposed it!!!

A while back I saw in Houston a 37 UPS truck. I still wonder what he saw in that big van!!!

rockfla · 04-03-2017, 01:34 PM

@Mrtexas
I saw that truck, I sure the one pictured below. I love the "unusual" V8 both passenger and commercial. I LOVE LOVE LOVED this truck and wish I could have bought it. NEAT STUFF. AND I might add, in my 53 years of existence on this planet, the only one I've ever seen!!!

Here 'tis again! I believe someone said that this owner is a MLB baseball guy. Anyone recognize the face? DD

Thing is...if I didn't have this early Ford disease, I'd have money!!

This is NASCAR Driver David Ragan , a very good friend of mine as is his father Nascar & ARCA star of the 80,s. David used to drive for our team & had UPS sponsorship , I found this awesome delivery for him & his dad & late uncle purchased it & surprised him for his birthday. It did not have any graphics on it, but was documented ligit UPS just the UPS brown color . Davids dad Ken called UPS & asked if he could add the graphics & they wanted to know where he got it as they destroy all their vans at the end of their usable UPS life . David was so surprised & love his van , he just called me about it 2 weeks ago as the fuel pump is bad. It has a v8/60 engine & came from an awesome gentleman in Texas that restored it.
Cheers
Tony
