Gents, 1st timer here and thought I would share a little barn find that I ran across. 1950 ford custom all original (new paint within last 10 years) flat head 8, 3 on the tree with over drive. Older woman gave me a smokin deal I couldnt p*** up on. Took it on its first shakedown run two days ago...runs like a sewing machine. Car was owned by a older gentleman that ran his own trucking outfit...I met him years ago and found this gem sitting in the shadows on the loading dock. Unfortunately the old timer p***ed away, but his wife had my number and got intouch....the rest is history.
haha...yea I took those about 3 weeks ago...it is now washed (looks gorgeous) and I also put some of the front grille and headlights on. I forgot to add that all the chrome/metal/bumpers came with the car in several large boxes. I plan on keeping it as it.....maybe dropping it a few inches .
good eye on the flag! I actually picked that out of a garbage can someone had thrown away..unbelievable what people will toss...it was still attached to the wooden post.....I have always dreamed of a barn find but never though it would actually happen...now if I can just find a nice panhead I will be set...
Incredibly jealous I've been looking for a 1950 for a while now that's original Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
