    In the over $30K offerings, it was a tough choice between the '32 fordor and the '36 3-window, but the 3-window wins.

    Under $30K class, it was a tossup between the Whittier, CA '28A roadster and the '29A banger powered roadster. IMHO I'd pick the '28.

    Under $20K, I would have to pick Pete Eastwood's '20 T center door, but I like the 348 powered Model A almost as much.

    Where were these cars when I had money burning a hole in my pocket?

    I can't believe Donzi's Tub (it will always be his in my mind) hasn't sold yet.

  12. Under 20
    Hit in the back, a little crusty and looks like fun to bang on

    Toss the wheels. Add steelies or Astros with skinny WWs. Then slam it. Bellflower tips scallops Flake roof.

    Add WWs, full skirts. Drop the ass end

  14. Under 20 Yes, I know, but having intimate knowledge of this car, I'm surprised it hasn't sold. split opening windshields, no rust, one repaint, straight six. Perfect for a mild drop, and add some interior to it, and you stand out in the crowd.

    Under 30 is this because it's a 32 ready to go.

    https://jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/1932-ford-sedan.1335425/

    Over 30k

    Because @krylon32 really knows how to build some amazing cars and it's just perfect.

    I was damned close to picking the metro… But ironically, I already have one.

    Purposely skipped to the bottom without reading anyone but Ryan's original post so I would not be swayed......

    Under 20k, too damn clean to pass up: https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/grandmas-1964-falcon.1336725/

    Under 30k, always wanted a Starliner, but this '39 speaks to me, especially if the stance is as good as it looks:

    Over 30k, lots of good choices. The Nailhead in this tipped it over for me:

  22. I do have a soft spot for Falcons but with this challenge of picking a car under 20 grand I have to go with my heart, I love this Model A.

    The next pick under 30 grand would have to be this Starliner, it just has the look.

    And for my pick for third, sky is the limit, money is no object, I would pick this 1932 Ford Roadster. HRP

    Whaa-aa-aat? Guys on here not following rules? :rolleyes:
    Huh.
    I'd contribute, but it's all fantasy for me and I'd just be torturing myself.

    Man that four door you picked @Ryan looks so much like a car in one of Pat Ganahls books. It maybe had a copper plated firewall? I’ll have to go hunt for it.

    I’m all about that v8-60 roadster though!
