It's fun learning about old Fords. I could have saved for another year, spent another $10K and purchased an old Ford that didn't need much but I am learning so much about old Fords by doing a lot of this work myself.
I found these Acorn Nuts in the engine compartment; they don't appear in the Ford Chassis Parts and Accessories Catalogue.
This mouse skeleton fell out of the back of the front seat recently. I did find an intact dead mouse the first day. It was a white/brown mouse--freshly dead. The tramatic flatbed ride probably stressed him to death. Wish I had a photo--I never had seen a brown and white mouse before.
I feel like I am starting to get somewhere. I have been rewiring the car little by little. Getting my Optima 6V battery soon for the first start up. Those tires look good, but in reality they need to be replaced. They are old. Rolled the car down my friend's driveway and stepped on the brakes--the car stopped. That is good.
Learning something new about old Fords nearly every day.
