Things are kind of stalled on my roadster right now. And truthfully I haven't been too excited about running a 49-51 Merc flathead in a car that was supposed to look like it was built around 1946-48. I won this cherry 1950 F1 last night on eBay. Something happened to the motor and they parked it in a barn before I was born So now it looks like I have a home for that Merc flattie until my roadster is actually ready to drive. As a bonus it's on Route 66 which is another one of my obsessions. Plans are to go get it in early July. As far as the truck, it's getting a matte clear coat, lowered, and new tires on the stock rims, that's it. Can't wait to tear into this one! Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Congrats on the F-1 Scott. You p***ed me a couple times last Summer when I was heading down Wilder to get my semi loaded at Straits. Your Tudor looks and sounds great. You actually got beside me at a light and I didn't know it and I thought there was something going on with my truck. Then the light changed and you got ahead of me, then I figured out what the rumble was. Now I can look forward to a cool F-1 on Wilder!! I live up inbetween Sterling and West Branch, up at the 202 on I-75 Mike
Thanks 50 F-1 Glad you like the Tudor. I can't wait to go get this truck and drop my hopped up flathead in it. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!

I can't believe how clean the seams are on the front fenders. They're usually packed with rust and Bondo around here. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
FINALLY, you take my advice. I told you that you ought to buy that thing when you showed me the pictures. The next thing that will happen is you'll build some *****in hot rod truck out of it and I'll start kicking my self for selling mine to Roger. Frank
Well since you sold yours on me I have to hand thousands of dollars over to a complete stranger 800 miles away! It's already rather *****in so I'm going to do as little to it as possible. Lowered, clear coated, new tires, swap in that nasty flathead of mine and call it done. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
