First Car

[ol'ferd]

Finally jumping head first into the car world. Been into Harleys for a wile and am now getting my first car project, a 1951 Ford Tudor. It's been sitting in my grandpa's shed since '74 and he purchased new. Not planing on chopping but would like to street rod it by doing a mild build on the flathead, Lowering around 4", disc brake front and balljoint conversion just to start. I'm planning on having it at least drive able by spring. The car is comming home in September and then the work starts.

Looking forward into being over my head and learning what not to do the hard way.
