How goes it Hambers, good here. Now all of us being car people weve herd the stories of cars that are supose to exist but turn out to be un-obtainable. Well most of the stories end up in the usaul results, but heres one that is true.
My dad was at work one day goin through the usual bis. when one of his employees (Troy) walked in his office and started to discus normal work bisnes. When they were done talking he noticed the picture of my dads old 33 ford tudor on the wall. He said he had one of those up on his uncles farm in North Dakota, but its a coupe, And we my dad was welcomed to if he'd like....WHAT a 33-34 coupe for FREE! NO way.
So my dad knowing that Troy wasnt an early ford buff asked him if hed get some pics of it (because he figured it would turn out to be a studebaker or somthin weird like that) and he said he'd have to get a hold of his aunt and it would be no problem.
So weeks went by, months went by and nothing, my dad figured the story came to its usual demise and let it go.
My dad had told me about the car and every once in a while I would bug him about it but he didnt say much. so one day i finaly got on his case to get him(troy) to get pictures of it.
Finaly, succes, one day he showed up with two pictures, It was definatly an early ford coupe, but not a 33 or a 34 but it was a three window......But what could it be .... the suspence. op gotta go Ill tell you the rest of the story later.

Just kidding here are the pics of it he gave us it was a 35 three window coupe.

The 35's are high dollar parts /also they are worthy of building cause they are different than all the sheep build!

He started building a frame for it, dropped axle, split bone juice brakes sbc th350 8 inch ford rear, ( ya know the usual driver stuff) the body he plans to leave stock with all the original so basicaly a resto rod. also i didnt mention that one of his buddies herd he had it and basically gave him a grill and ahood and another fender and weve been collecting trinkets and bobles for it here and there, i think hes got everything for it except fo bumpers!
