The Ford Barn

Figured some people here would like this.

After spending 14 months and countless hours redoing my father in law '29 A, I felt like doing something else for him. Going to his house today as we couldn't be there on Christmas.

Got to be in the mood to paint, done motorcycles, work boats, halloween stuff, normally on 18"X24" canvas.

I am no Bob Ross, don't paint happy little trees.

But do what I can. After taking the picture I had to fix the spare tire. Make it more round, spent 20 hrs looking at this from a foot away so my eyes go cross sometimes.

Here is his car the day I got it running (after a little road trip naturally)

Thanks guys, he really liked it.

to be honest I liked it enough to keep it for myself, but wrapped it up and give it too him.

He also got two lamps with images of A's on them from my brother in law. The lamps look to be make from old clear tall jugs.
