Projects My sort of barn find.

My uncle passed away a couple of months ago. We found this in his barn.

Looks like he was building a hot rod. Looks solid. I hope you or someone in the family can finish it.

 

That's a very nice find indeed!

Pure gold there...and right at home, in Dearborn!

 

it was a secret ?

 

Wow!!! My uncle passed and the oldest kid sold off his collection for cash. Didn't share with the rest of us...

You didn't know your uncle had this?

My brother did the same thing when my Mom passed.

 

Nice!!

 

That sucks... Would have been nice to keep the vintage cars in the family.

your lucky usually i step in my barn finds and its brown and in a little pile with corn in it

 

Sorry for your loss - plans for his car?

 

I thought he sold it. It was behind a pile of junk. I'm going to get it and finish it for him! He also has a 48 Pontiac convertible, 48 Pontiac 4 door sedan and a 1956 Ford that I'm going to have to find homes for.

 

Amen

 

Wow,
Looking forward to seeing how you progress with this, make your Uncle proud.

 

I have it set up in my will. One child gets the entire contents of my shop. The one I trust not to sell my old car parts for scrap value. Sad but have to protect what's left off the parts and my hot rod.

Your Uncle is smiling right now...good on you and sorry for you're loss...perhaps you will find he may have saved some old pics from his Hotrod days...

 

all I have is nieces. even my nieces had girls. if I die before my brother everything I own will probably go into a giant dumpster. just a bunch of old junk.

 

that's cool good luck with it. Now can some one tell us or me what is it. Year, make thanks.

I'm thinking a '36 Ford convertible, but I'm not an authority.

Roger

 

It's a 1935 Ford cabriolet Model 48-760.
17000 were produced.
Make your late uncle proud by finishing it.

 

Thanks

 

... KQQL ... hope to see you on the road with it one day soon ...

 

Maybe they will marry a ‘car’ guy........

 

Sorry for the loss of cool family.
I know your uncle is digging this and will guide your hands. That's a bitchen car.
My brother lost the whole kit and caboodle because he threw the property tax bill away thinking they were junk mail.
That was the only bill. Mom paid off the house when Dad passed away.

 

with a 8BA in it

 

Sad you didn't know your uncle..........

 

Fresh flattie , half way there...condolences.
