BIG SHOCK on display engine

[Krylon32]

Lawson-Cox I just priced a simple hand painted car show sign for my deuce sedan and it was 250.00. As for lawyers I have 2 of them for neighbors. The one is one of the leading defense attorneys in the area and he is 500.00 an hr. and the other one is the county attorney and has a private practice on the side and he's 300.00 an hr. I only use the county attorney if I have an emergency. As for the sign they have went from 75.00 25 years ago to the current price. Since I have a sign for the other 30+ cars I've built I ordered the sign.

Krylon32, yep, that's probably what they are charging nowadays. I am talking about close to 35 years ago when I last was able to work. That's a lot of water over the dam.

Krylon 30+ builds , good for you sir .
And a sign for each build ��

Lawson would be a lot richer if he charged more for parts. Thanks for the intake, cleaned up fine and fixed a lot of issues. Greg Kirkland

Do you have any pictures of this engine or have I missed them?

^^ Not sure of the relevance of that to this thread but it was an interesting read.

Mart, I think the relevance is that the Greatest Generation made what we are today possible, including Fordbarn. Let's not forget.

Mart, this thread had degenerated like most of them do. Started out about costs of what should be inexpensive plaques for an engine display stand then on to attorney's hourly rates, to personal attacks to sleep and conscience then donations and dead horses. Gimme a break.

Lawson - Yes, we traded messages when you were collecting information for writing a 1935-1936 pickup book. The two cab corner trim pieces I got from you when I visited your garage about 18 months ago are photographed are included in my soon (next Spring) to be released book. I've attempted to illustrate or photograph most of the parts of the cab, doors, etc. While the focus, and most of the content, is on big trucks, there will be a fair amount of overlap with the truck and pickup cabs so it should provide useful information for those restoring a pickup.
Hope to see your engine and stand in June. I'll be at the ENM and plan a trip to Auburn. Plus, my book should be there for sale too by the EFV8 Club. I'll be happy to sign a personal copy for you.

Mart, it goes back to the plaque that 19fordy had made to honor his father, and the 3rd Armored.

Perhaps a place like this would be an option.
You design it yourself.

Lawson.... Contact these folks at the link BELOW. More than reasonable pricing for a multitude of different sizes.

Rotowrench's post seemed also to be connected to "The V8 Card From France" .... in any event, we should be VERY THANKFUL because we are here & able to celebrate Christmas & our "Barn Fords"........

Thanks. I appreciate the well wishes. The Lord has truly blessed me with a long life, and in so many other ways.
