Default Introduction

Hi, my name is Jim and I live in Northeast Iowa along The River. I was born into a Fordaholic family. I have strayed from the Ford line of great cars at times but always returned. I am also afflicted with MMS (multiple motorcycle syndrome). My current condition finds me with 2 Fords and 12 motorcycles.

I’m here after five years fighting a desire for an old Ford, Specifically a 1939 Tudor Standard. It took along time for this to develop. My first encounter with an old Ford was a mid thirties hump back sedan rust heap on my paper route in 1959. My Dad, a Ford parts man did not give his blessing. Four years later when I earned a drivers license he found me a ‘55 Victoria.

The need for an old Ford returned several years ago when I found a photo of my late father with his first car, a ‘40 Deluxe Tudor. Before this car he was on two wheels as in bicycle or Indian MC. Doing a little searching on the web I fell for the lines of the ‘39 Standard.

So here I am.
