I'm an HVAC/R tech by trade, and this project is mostly paid for by my overtime and side jobs. Not like I realy care what you think!! You got some damn nerve making B.S. statements. There is always one numb nut who happens on to this website with out a clue. Further more this web site is for spreading knowledge and growing the hobby. Makes sense to me to have someone who's been around and worked on flatheads and early fords most of their life to do the work. And Hell yeah I'll support any one like that with my hard earned money. Money made with long days and late nights and time away from home. your so clueless |

Re: 39 photo updates...
Thank's Ken/atch, and yes that is what its all about. Restoring an old Ford as best YOU can and getting the right help/education along the way. Someday I hope to be that senior member passing down some knowledge to the youngsters.

Re: 39 photo updates...
Wow, that's sweet! Very well done.
My build is also financed with side money, sweat and love. I'm one of those who enjoys the build as well as the drive later.

The Fordbarn is a place for friends to share knowledge and to further the enjoyment of the keeping and restoring of old Fords. The man has a very nice vehicle that he is restoring, he should not feel compelled to defend himself for not being a body man a machinist and an expert painter. He has the talents to assemble a high quality build and deserves to be allowed to be proud of it. |

I too love the truck and the addition of disc brakes.

Re: 39 photo updates...
Grill from a distance looks good, but not bad up close. Can't complain for 70+ years.
Next month will post new pic's as I get it closer every week. Got my windshield frame back from powdercoating today, very nice. Red's headers are on the way |

Re: 39 photo updates...
Nothing like a detailed flathead. Bought one for fifteen bucks in 1960 and put it in a 51 Ford Victoria and drove it from Sunnyvale Ca to Mexico and it never missed a beat nor did it burn a quart of oil. Drove it for five more years and it still didn't burn a quart of oil. Couldn't hear it run when it was running.
