Default Hello Ford Barn

I've been lurking for a long time, but am posting as non-annoyingly as possible to hit my 10. I'm looking for parts for a '34 ford roadster pickup and need to be able to PM in the classifieds.


My dad restored cars for a living, everything from T's to 70's muscle cars. One of his projects was a caddie convertible that hauled Santa in the Massey's day parade once!


I inherited one of his favorite projects, the '34 RPU. The drive line is OT for here, but the body panels are all original Henry, and I'm working in as man original parts as practical.


The vast amount of information you all share is amazing, and has helped me greatly so far.

Welcome aboard!! Sounds like a great project, if possible post some pics and your general location. Some members nearby might be able to assist on your RPU.

I’ve got pics on the H.A.M.B. Under the same user name. Don’t want to break the rules here.

Rules are pretty lax here compared to other forums. Guys get off topic quite often. I like the wide berth Ryan gives us. I learn more stuff.

===============================================


Gnater, Welcome to the FordBarn. I think Frank summed up this site pretty
well. There is a ton of diversity here, and that is a good thing.
We are NOT all robots that are all identical.
Your ride is a Ford, that's the main thing, but many here have Fords that
are modified one way or another, so stick around and learn, but also, don't
be afraid to jump right in and contribute where you can.
