The Ford Barn

Pops purchased this car (his first antique) in 1975. As there was no back seat, my brother and I used to ride around in the trunk (it’s cavernous back there!).

Thanks to Ken, we got her running again after a 5 year hiatus last June. I’m a huge believer on Stabil BTW as all we needed was a fresh battery and some starting fluid and she cranked right over.

We lost Pops last July, but have slowly been getting the cars back to roadworthy status. Here’s the latest video after a bunch of work was recently completed.

Miss you Pops!

Great looking 37!

Nice! The '37 sounds as great as it looks. Pops would be ready to jump in with a roadie and go. Was that his final Lombard cruise night? Really miss 'em both!

A good looking ‘37 indeed! And I like the St. Louis meet tee shirt. Hard to believe it was 30 years ago. The StL regional group #124 is celebrating its 40th anniversary next Saturday. I’m not sure my tee shirt will still fit…
