Re: How Many Know The History Of their V8 Since New ?
I do since it was my wife's family purchased it new - a '52 Ford F1 - black - mostly sat on the farm all week and was used to take eggs into town on Sat. and do the shopping. I got it in 1998 when I retired - it had been sitting in a barn on their farm property - only 61K actual miles - no rust. They started it up "occasionally" and ran it up and down the country roads. Barn critters had eaten up the upholstery, headliner, wiring insultation, etc. I trailered it over to Little Rock since it had no brakes (brake fluid had jellied) and went to work on it - a GREAT old pickup!!!
