As you can see I had the doors lettered this spring - whole nuther story there.... and it's still getting used as it should be! Was going to do the lettering myself - and as usual - I should have! But decided to take it to an old-time sign painter, told him what I wanted - even (tried to ) confirm he knew what I meant....
Insread, he just thinned out the paint a little and painted away! When I got it home I burnished it best I could, but it was dry - and tough! NExt spring I'll rub it out some more.
Here's me taking some engine blocks to the recyclers. They sucked them out of the truck with the giant magnet!
I like this shot - 2 FORD products, 50+ years apart. They don't make 'em like they used to...GOOD or BAD?? Less style, better made!
This spring the Old Man is getting new tires - full WhiteWalls - and I'll paint the rims a cream color. I've been considering finally switching over to 12V as well. As much as I like the kitchiness and old-school flavour of 6V, it sometimes strands me as it turns over soooo slowly. Everything else remains the same.
