First flathead in 40+ years
I just bought my first flathead,(first V8 anyway) that I've had since 1977.always liked them,but I always stuck with the Model A's for play cars.It was actually in a garage about 200 feet from my dads bedroom window.Place was sold and it just got put into this tent.The car was redone by the owners dad in the 70's,the son inherited it and never drove it.The owner sees me driving the A's every day,and felt I'd ought to own this too.I'm curious what model this 35 three window coupe is called.

Great find, Keith. Nice to see another New Hampshire person who has both an A and a EV8. Love 'em both.

Re: First flathead in 40+ years
A very desirable car; 3 windows are real popular. Looks to be a real good one too...you are indeed very fortunate. Cherish it.

Re: First flathead in 40+ years
That's quite the score; congrats!
The only real downside to the 3w are the rear blind spots. That can be remedied, to a degree, with TWO good mirrors. |
