In the over $30K offerings, it was a tough choice between the '32 fordor and the '36 3-window, but the 3-window wins. Under $30K class, it was a tossup between the Whittier, CA '28A roadster and the '29A banger powered roadster. IMHO I'd pick the '28. Under $20K, I would have to pick Pete Eastwood's '20 T center door, but I like the 348 powered Model A almost as much. Where were these cars when I had money burning a hole in my pocket?

I'll get a little weird. Under 20k I always wanted one to putz around in. Over 20k Big and little blackwalls, get a nice rake to it. Over 30k I bet you could polish that paint up like Chris Swenson did on that 46 he had. 56 is my fav 555 year
Under $20K, '50 Shoebox out of Oklahoma Under $30K, '29 Tudor from Arizona Over $30k, '32 4 Door with history. Was also looking at the '32 Tudor out of Owatonna but have to agree with Ryan, history makes the 4 Dr.
Under 20 Hit in the back, a little crusty and looks like fun to bang on under 30 Toss the wheels. Add steelies or Astros with skinny WWs. Then slam it. Bellflower tips scallops Flake roof. over 30 Add WWs, full skirts. Drop the ass end
https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/1947-chrysler-new-yorker-convertible.1327057/ I’m a mopar guy, I would keep the caddy. Can you say tail dragger? https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/48-ford-super-deluxe.1336014/ I dunno, it speaks to me. https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/1934-ford-deluxe-phaeton.1312871/ I struggled with the over $30,000. This one because it’s different then every other ‘34 you see
Under 20 Yes, I know, but having intimate knowledge of this car, I'm surprised it hasn't sold. split opening windshields, no rust, one repaint, straight six. Perfect for a mild drop, and add some interior to it, and you stand out in the crowd. https://jalopyjournal.com/forum/thr...r-sedan-with-updated-photos-and-info.1329909/ Under 30 is this because it's a 32 ready to go. https://jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/1932-ford-sedan.1335425/ Over 30k Because @krylon32 really knows how to build some amazing cars and it's just perfect. https://jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/32-ford-henry-highboy.1320789/
Under 20 has to be the Shoebox, like it so much I already have one https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/1950-ford-2-door-deluxe-sedan.1336709/ Under 30 Model A Sedan, I do like a Sedan https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/29-tudor-hotrod-25-000.1334522/ Over 30 has to be Phaeton that Ryan passed on https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/1934-ford-deluxe-phaeton.1312871/
Under 20k: 1949 Oldsmobile 88- $12.5k https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum...-88-2-dr-23k-original-mile-local-car.1336572/ Under $30k: I agree with Ryan and the ‘28 roadster. No one else has a chance. Over $30k: 1940 ford convertible, $32k Barely even exceeded $30k. A lot of good options out there… Unfortunately my budget is 30… dollars.

Purposely skipped to the bottom without reading anyone but Ryan's original post so I would not be swayed...... Under 20k, too damn clean to pass up: https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/grandmas-1964-falcon.1336725/ Under 30k, always wanted a Starliner, but this '39 speaks to me, especially if the stance is as good as it looks: https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/1939-ford-standard.1336653/ Over 30k, lots of good choices. The Nailhead in this tipped it over for me: https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/32-ford.1282408/
Bottom up Over 30k Under 30k Under 20k @ $650 this is damn near scrap price Lots of good stuff in the 1st three pages Dan
I do have a soft spot for Falcons but with this challenge of picking a car under 20 grand I have to go with my heart, I love this Model A. Page 1 The next pick under 30 grand would have to be this Starliner, it just has the look. Page 3 Page 3 And for my pick for third, sky is the limit, money is no object, I would pick this 1932 Ford Roadster. HRP
Under 20K, My next project will be a coupe and I hate body work. https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/1930-ford-chopped-model-a-coupe-update.1336348/ 2. Under 30K, I drive my RPU banger every day, Might be a little too nice but that can be remedied. https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/29-ford-with-built-banger.1334507/ 3. 30K+, I've always been a sucker for a 61 Pontiac. https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/1961-pontiac-nostalgia-s-s.1336485/ Livin' the dream Warren
Whaa-aa-aat? Guys on here not following rules? Huh. I'd contribute, but it's all fantasy for me and I'd just be torturing myself.
Man that four door you picked @Ryan looks so much like a car in one of Pat Ganahls books. It maybe had a copper plated firewall? I’ll have to go hunt for it. I’m all about that v8-60 roadster though!
