Default Re: How Many Know The History Of their V8 Since New ?

Not a V8, but my '28 roadster was bought new in '28 from a Ford dealer in Cherry Hill, NJ. The original owner took it off the road in 1940. Completely disassembled it and stored it in a barn until the 2000. I bought it from the son of the original owner.

Came with the original '28 NJ title and the dealers envelope. It has the purchase price written in pencil on the back.

I have owen my 34 roadster for alot of years. It was built at Long Beach Cal. A school teacher and she husband purchased the car new in the summer of 34. They had the dealer install a ash tray radio and a Columbia rear. They got the car from the dealer and drove it to their summer home in Wis. They only use it in the summers when she was not teaching school. It stayed in Wis untill their death in 1969. Their son did not want the car and sold it to a man that lived in North Carolina. He did not used the car and keep it stored untill I purchased it .
