One of the nicest years Ford ever built and that looks like the best of the best. Congrats

Very nice, Kube! Certainly one of the nicest looking Fords ever made. Enjoy it!

Wow! Nice car!

Kube · 07-19-2018, 06:07 PM

Thanks for the very thoughtful words guys.
I'm very excited about this one. It'll be a year or more before I can tackle a full restoration as my shop schedule is more than full until then.

In the meantime, I will do some light cosmetics and replace the springs. I'd managed to locate and purchase a pair of NOS springs to restore the proper height.

The only other car I have on my list is a '32 Chrysler Imperial Roadster. They are simply art on wheels.

RalphM · 07-19-2018, 06:19 PM

My 35 was originally Washington blue, although it is not 100% original(filled roof, hyd brakes,column shift) it still runs a flathead and I was thinking of going back original paint.
Your beauty convinced my it’s the right color choice!

This checked off a (large) box on my bucket list for certain.

WOW!!! That is a really beautiful car!

Congratulations Mike, what a lovely car.

gnolnor · 07-19-2018, 08:04 PM

Congratulations Kube!

Important to have stock restorations maintained and preserved, especially 1936 Ford Deluxe Roadsters. I finished mine last August after 8 years. It was a basket case and required parts from four different cars. It has earned two Best Original Ford 32-53 V8 awards. Keep'em original! gnolnor

Truly beautiful ! As said before, one of the most desired cars that Henry and Co. ever produced!

Lawson Cox · 07-19-2018, 09:31 PM

Well, yes, I was looking for a three window. Came mighty close past year. The one I wanted I knew had been 100% stock and 100% rust free. The folks that got to it before me ten years earlier did such a horrible job on it, I simply could not justify their asking price.
They were looking for ($) what a properly restored car was worth - not the 10¢ job they did.

What a shame as that particular car deserved the best.

Seth Swoboda · 07-20-2018, 11:40 AM

Hey, that's not a '39-'40 Ford! Just kidding. You have a beautiful '36 there Mike! Enjoy it.

I was wondering if you were going to do a full restoration on this one.
