My favorite of all my rides is my 31 Ford coupe
it has been 'fixed'
I have tried to keep it original but 'fix' Henrys shortcomings.
The original engine came alive with a high compression head!
That was impressive.
The transmission really sucked tho, so I put in a fully synchronised 3 speed with overdrive from a 84 Ford pickup.
All that and the horrible original brakes... now it has 1976 Chevy brakes in 1940 Ford drums.
I fixed a few more things but no butcher work.
Like the dropped floor in the trunk.
but somehow I like old trucks the most
It all started with my grandpas 37 Ford pickup....
