Default OT- Another New Project- am I Crazy?

Well, last week I posted how my wife bought me a 53 Ford, the car we had when we met. Seems word of these things gets around... and in one of my conversations I was offered another car, a 30 Ford 5 Window. I looked at it tonight...it was too great a deal to pass on. So, another project added to the stable. I promise, I'll get the Jeepster running first. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

Yes, you are crazy. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] Glad I could help.



That 30 Ford looks great already! Are you planning on keeping it mostly original?

Nice find!

Naw, you wouldn't be considering putting the body on the Jeepster would you?

Naw, too hard.

But then - Naw, the wife wouldn't let ---.

But - it would be a neat project - Naw, it would -- well, - be unusual for sure!

A 4x4 "A"?

Thanks! It will be a long time before I get to this, but I couldn't pass it up. Once in a lifetime find. It's nice enough to restore...actually too nice not to. But I'm a hot rodder at heart, I may have to do some powertrain mods. I don't know, I will not be doing any chop/body mods, that's for sure.

I think our rockers are just a little too rusty!

Excellent find Randy, I'm jealous.
