I just went to see a private trove of Ford trucks.

'29, '32, '34, '35, '36, '38, '48, '50, '53, '55, '66, and some others. Even a '70 Ranchero Squire. Also, his son's FC 170. However, because I felt more like being an asshole to you guys than the gentleman whose collection it was, I have SR-20 on NONE OF IT. Sorry. Here's a Talbot Lago:

We didn't know he had the '38 Ford pickup until we saw it - it was a pleasant surprise. He also has a '29 Chevy one-ton that isn't currently being restored (apart), and a '41(IIRC, coulda' been '40) Master Deluxe four-door with almost no miles on it.

I was avoiding specific comment until your pic got un-kinjad: nice Cragars(?). SBC I'd assume? One of the 50s models at this guy's place had an LT-1 ('90s) under the hood.

I like the blue on your '33 as well. What'd you use for front suspension, one of the off-the-shelf beam axle setups or something else?

I don't particularly have a penchant for Americana, but old Ford really tickles my pickle.

There were a goodly number of whitewalls there, I'm not gonna lie.

I totally understand why you didn't take pics, but I really wish you had. Ah well, happy new year!

It was worth more to look at them than take pictures - very few were in photogenic settings, mostly in storage. Likewise!

Its more green, but its really hard to get the color right on the camera, this is pretty much a Camaro in disguise. the motor is a 1970 LT-1 chevy small block, with dart heads and dual fours.

the front end consists of a superbell chromed drilled and dropped I beam axle and hairpins, with a vega steering box and cross steer.

it used to have a real deal original axle that was dropped and drilled with a split wishbone, but the drop on the axle wasn't the best so my grandpa and I swapped it.
