Projects Another " Theyre still out there" post

Picked up this 29 roadster today. It had been sleeping in that old garage for over 40 years ! Nice body and complete. would make a great TROG car.

 

This is a barn find. Yours is too clean. lol

 

Ya got me ! mine was't buried in the mud. Sorry to misrepresent , lol

 

And yours didn't need a dozer to get it out did it Bob?

 

No, parked on good dry concrete. The barn needed a dozer though !

 

Really neat!!

 

Well all barn finds are not equal,,,,,but still barn finds .
Looks like the barn was about to come down too .

Nice find! I think I have been too negative here lately, so today I am only posting nice comments. Your car gives me a good start. What are your plans for it besides TROG?

 

I will most likely turn it over to a new caretaker. Funny thing is i had been looking for a 29 roadster and couldn't find a decent one that was affordable.Then i stopped looking because i decided to finish up some other projects and this showed up.I don't have alot of storage space or i would stash it away.I may anyway , lol

 

Congratulations, they are getting harder to find. HRP

 

Yes they are!

 

Congratulations Bob whats the plans for her? Flathead

 

I think i'll be moving it along John.I have too many other things going on.I just couldn't p*** it up! (you know how that goes lol)

 

Nice find...

 

That find deserves at least 2 of these. One for the "find" and one for getting it out of there before it was wearing that barn

 

Yea, the only reason the old gent finally decided to part with it is because he saw the building falling apart.

 

Here's my "out beside the barn find". She's a little crusty but will make a nice ride. And this is where I'm at now. Getting ready to put new sheet metal on and build a new floor. Just got the banger running Friday night.

 

Cool

 

Good score! I've been searching for years and never found one in a barn or next to a barn or anywhere near a barn for that matter!

 

@camcrusher do you have an AA ch***is listed on facebook for sale. I think I just saw one in Candor NY yesterday.

 

Yes it is

 

yes they are still out there, no pix, but got a lead on a barn half full of model A tin... fingers crossed !

 

My old high school shop teacher was the president of the local Model A Ford club back in the late 60's . He was the guy that fostered my interest in early fords.At that time he had gathared a m***ive collection of Model A parts in a huge barn. As time went on his interest in Model A's kind of p***ed and he became interested in more exotic cars.When i spoke to him about 3 years ago he said he hadn't been in that barn for years but still had no interest in selling anything.I think about that barn alot !
