After awhile I get contacted about the car. I had one or two other buyers in front of me to purchase it. So after months of waiting and phone call after phone call the title was transferred and I have it home safe in the garage. it will need some love to get it completely road ready, but now on to what yall really want to see PICTURES!!!!!!!
Nice story as well as a beautiful example of a very nice Early Ford V-8!! It warms my heart to see some of these cars falling into the hands of young folks who will appreciate them the same way us older geezer's do.
