My Barn Find

Right after Christmas I saw this Craigslist for a 54 Ford Customline with very low mileage. I wound up buying the car and having it hauled to my home in California. The car has only 23501 miles on it, do***ented by service records and registration papers. It is super solid, Y Block engine, standard trans (no overdrive), new www tires, new battery, and excellent chrome. The lighter has never been used and the wind up clock still works.

Check out the pics of the car the day after it came out of the paint shop with its "Sierra Brown" color.
