Thanks, Tim! I saw your tudor at Loisville, NSR Nats, a number of years back! I must say, your sanitary sedan made a profound impression upon me!

 

FINE art.

 

Fordnut40, do you know who did that artwork ? My old shop was right around the corner from the El Monte drive in.

 

I believe that one is a Kent Bash print.

My 40 coupe. Recently upgraded suspension and transmission.

 

Still a great looking 40, looking forward to a report on the results.

 

Thanks fordnut40

 

Looks great!

Okay what is this? I have been a student of the 39- 40 Ford for a long time and I have never seen one of these.....Does anyone have some information about this car? I am assuming (for now) that it is a one off build...

 

I think that the guy who owns/built it posted something on Facebook about it. Seems like it is his version of a fat fendered Vicky.

 

Ya, that one had me scratching my head. Part sedan /coupe?,

 

A good friend called me yesterday, with some great news. He told me he bought a 40 Woody. But we've known about it for at least 40 years. The {STORY} It was in a barn, on a family farm. Sadly the owner passed away. He would never sell it.But he tore it apart, and planed on restoring it. Time went by and it never happened. The family decided to let it go. My friend is the lucky new owner. RON...

Well that should keep your friend busy for awhile Ron! Hopefully the PO kept track of all of the speacial woody parts.

 

40 Deluxe Woody, very jealous, my all time dream car, I missed out on one twice a long time ago. Maybe one day..

Thanks for the info i.rant. It does look he did a great job of building he car. It looks like Henry could have made it. It looks similar to the 37 Ford Club coupe.
