    Flathead in an original beater would be cool... although I'd be looking to add juice brakes to that combination.

    Looks like they have started gathering parts for a flathead conversion A-V8 !

    Great score. I can't believe all these barn finds turning up! Doesn't happen like that down here.

    Some people call them Mud Dobbers.
     
  11. Good timing. If you'd waited much longer, either the tree or mother nature would have swallowed the barn and the Model A.

    This is what I pull cars around the USA with. '05, 3/4 ton, 6.0 liter gas engine. I bought it a 1 1/2 years ago with 133k miles for $200.00. I put a new battery and 4 used tires from wrecked trucks at U Pull It for $200.00. Then I sold the A/C rack in the back for $175.00. It has a 164k on it now. It's a pulling MoFo with 4 wheel disc to slow it down. I can get Skinny and Fat girls in the back of this one. LOL Iced in here in LR so no work on the T. Brrrr its cold!!!

    Life somehow keeps me from keeping everything that I find and buy. It is now "For Sale" and is listed in the HAMB Cl***ifieds.

    My head is reeling in anguish over how do I hold onto certain cars that are hard to find and then I buy another one, this '31 coupe. I'm doing all I can do to not to sell anyone of them. Do any of you guys/girls anguish over holding on to just 1 more. I probably won't finish all of them before I check out.
