Default Re: Barn Find

My barn finds. I have a AR Roadster that Bob Johnson bought new in March 22 1928 He was the Ford mechanic at the local dealer then . I paid $ 225 for it in 1955 .The other a 1930 sw Fordor 29000 miles on it ,paid $ 50 as second owner from the same garage . These cars have been inside for years and still have original tires on them .I have driven the 28 about 40 miles every year and it runs great .It has #5 license plate on it for the Province of Alberta .They both have single plate glass wind shields and the Roadster has it's original honey comb radiator which Ford said he didn't do .It's like owning a famous picture ,you don't do anything with it but it is the pleasure of looking at it is what the owner likes . Your barn find I would call a Cabriolet 68-B that is one of the more valuable cars a real jewel Keep it .
