I'm still interested in cars of that era, but when I was a kid I was insanely into hot rods, 50's sleds and muscle cars. I got a subscription to HOT ROD when I was 12 and I still know more about pushrod motors than I do about new fangled overhead cam FI stuff haha. I used to be mesmerized by Milner's '32 5 window and Falfa's bad '55. Also where I'm from in N. California there is a huge hot rod/muscle car scene, heres some pics from the most recent show I went to last summer, its every Friday night....

For the record, that's my next project. Not a ford, but an old Chevy truck. Restomod ftw.

No chance it will make it here before breaking again.

Can't find a pic easily but I want one of these in grey/white.

It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

You don't set your goals very high, wanting to build a chevy. :wink:


I like just about anything from the 30s and 40s, and basically only Fords from the 50s and 60s.

I might have a thing for old cars:
My TR6 (the good one):

I also have in my storage area that my dad and I rent:
67 Triumph GT6
75 Triumph TR6
63 Thriumph TR3
66 Buick Riviera
I paid $500 totally for all these at a junkyard that was going out of business, and the cars are not in that bad of shape, just no time to work on them

My dad also has a couple old Austin Healy's, as well as a Volvo that was originally used on an old TV show

I don't think I've ever heard of a junkyard going out of business. How does that happen?

that is exactly what happened. The old man had cars from the 30's on up, keep everything, and when he died, his son wanted to part of it, so everything went up for auction

If that doesnt pan out for them, I know where there's a 57 ford that already has a flame job, wooden bed I think, needs restoration, but was running last time i knew

Our family had a '34 Ford Model T with the suicide doors and the whole 9. I really wish we had kept it so I could restore it.... it was dirty but overall in about 50% condition. My dad sold it to a guy who was going to turn it into a hotrod I think, at least that's a cool way for it to go!
