After 19 years, Ford has become a monument.

In winter 2019, I lifted the body of my Ford for repairs.

Slava, Welcome to the FordBarn Forums! Your car has IT. I mean it's cool. Definitely not your ordinary 1935 car. Thank you for sharing and please keep us updated as you need help and make progress to running and driving.

It sure does. I wonder if it was added some time in the car's life or if Ford of Germany did things differently (especially on vehicles intended for the military). Some underside shots would be interesting.

Slava, welcome to "The Barn". I have a special interest as my first old car was a 1936 Tudor.

After lifting the body, I repaired the frame
The frame was changed to fit the L6 engine GAZ 52.

Regarding how high the front sits, in the one picture, it looks like the transverse spring was replaced, with twin springs.
