Gang. I recently traveled to Argentina where I met a young hot rodder with similar interests. Hes working on a model t hot rod(flathead v8,etc, he asked me to look for the rear quarter panels for a model t which I found. I want to help him by finding the panels behind the doors.. These are toast. I dont want free,just want someone thats hoarding them and maybe wants to help a youngster build his car.. .ill pay for them,figure shipping to me and eventually take everything down to him. Let me know if someone is holding and wants to sell. Thanks in advance
There is one listed here in AZ. I consider it pretty proud, and doesn't look much better than what he's got. But that's not my decision. Just letting you know what's out there. https://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/pts/d/goodyear-ford-model-touring-car-body/7877962389.html
Oh no! Thank you. Has anyone taken parts like this over seas in the airplane with them? Any AussieEnglish hambers have experience?
I’ve done it loads of times. Best to put in checked luggage. Box/wrap it like it’s going through the post and you’ll be fine. If it’s sharp/jagged and rusty it’s at the security persons opinion on if they will let you carry it on. I’ve carried speed equipment on a plane numerous times but was made to check a piece of metal cut out and painted up like a pinstriping Bris because it had a “sharp” tip and could be used as a weapon. Easier to check if it isn’t super rare/irreplaceable.
There’s a few swaps coming up, I’ll keep my eyes open. The main swap meets here for those type parts aren’t until mid year though. Maybe look at the Fordbarn also
