Meeting up to cruise to the "Hobo Happenings" in Douglass, KS. It was a beautiful and fun day!

 

I didn't know where to post this. I thought about the craigslist post but this isn't inexpensive.....but it does need to be seen and bought (not mine). Looks to have had a early front mount sbc.
If this isn't a good spot Mark, please move it.

....Lot of potential there for sure. Hope someone on here scoops it up. Be great to see it back on the road in all of its' former glory.

 

Great looking car you'd feel ok parking anywhere and not worry about a scuff or door ding. I'd be happy with it as a builder but with no interior kits any more and no engine it will take quite a bit of resources to finish it out. I enjoy the build part of the hobby but one can buy a runner in great condition now for just a few dollars more than the asking on this one. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1940-ford-deluxe-convertible-coupe-25/

 

That is spot on!
