Hello all. Not that new to the forum, but have been around here for a while reading some pretty interesting posts. I have an original 1950 Ford custom 2 door. I looked for one of these for years and finally found one. Flathead, three speed and 6 volt. I hope to keep it as close to original as I can.
I'm having a few issues with the old girl right now, so I'm sure to have a few questions that some of you may be able to help me out with.
Looking forward to being a better participant!
Cheers
Bill

You've probably heard it before, and I'm sure you'll hear it again : "We really like pictures!"

If it's the car in your avatar. it sure looks good from what I can see.

Welcome to the Barn!

Well.... Thanks to all for the great welcome to the Barn! It's great to be here, eh!
I'll try and watch out for the snow petehoovie.... it's actually snowing as we speak. I have two cats, two dogs, two donkeys, two horses, 5 chickens and 6 ducks..... I thought they quit makin' white snow these days!!
Anyways, here are a couple of the fords. The first two pictures are of the Ford 8N's the red belly is a 48 and the yellow one is a 1950.

The third is the '50 Ford.... the one I'll have plenty of questions about!

And finally... my Ford Barn.

Thanks in advance for any help that you can offer when I get ready to get back at the car when the weather warms up a bit more.
Cheers
Bill

That is a great looking 1950 Ford Custom Tudor Sedan. The snow really sets this picture off. Welcome to Ford Barn.
