    When I saw the ***le of this thread I thought you found the sedan delivery. Oh well.
    Do you have the doors for that coupe?
    Also, let's see what's under the blue tarp, and behind the kiddie pool. I know you have stuff stashed all over the place!

    When I find something I had forgotten about, it usually doesn't incorporate the body of an old car... Especially a deuce.

    Nice that you are able to get reacquainted.

    How the hell did you ever sleep or concentrate with the knowledge that that was hiding in the shed out back?

    I would have kept an old friend like that very close, not forgetting a compliment once in a while. Like, sorry I haven't visited in a while and I love you............Please show us how you abuse it. Please don't do anything crazy with it. An original Ford like that deserves some reverence. But that's just my opinion.

    Good thing you got it out before the shed fell down.
    Shows a lot of patience letting that body sit for that long.

    That would look good in my garage, even with those nifty snow tires.
    Do I have anything you "need"?

    PS...Does the guy you got it from know about this board?
