Default New to the Ford Barn

Just joined the Ford Barn, been using it for research for awhile and figured it was time to join. I'm relatively new to Model A's, I've have mine for only a couple years. I currently live in South Carolina and am serving in the Air Force. My Model A, 1930 closed cab pick up, was given to me by my grandfather a couple years ago so it means a lot to me and I make sure to keep it up. Just thought I'd say hello and introduce myself a little bit.

Kevin

Welcome to the Fordbarn and ask all the questions that you have. I wouldn't have been able to get my car running, it was built from parts, without the help that I got on the Fordbarn.

Welcome Kevin. I'm new too but I did my introduction in one of the sticky threads. Who reads them...<grin> I wasn't smart enough to do it in the regular threads.
I have a T and an A. The A folks here are a great bunch and the cars are beyond fun.
After I picked up my A I took the T for a ride. I thought man I gotta work on this thing ( the T). It runs fine. Life in the slow lane is where it's at...

Thanks for the warm welcome and kind words. I've got some good advice on here already and I'll make sure to give back as I can. I'm lucky to still have my grandfather around and we are still making memories with the A (mine and his) I'll post some more pictures when I get the chance.
