Hi! My name is Rick, I have a 33 Ford traditional Tudor sedan. It’s been in the family since 1972, my aunt thought it first, then my dad, and now my dad’s giving it to me, and I’m 50! It started off stock original, then changed two or three times over the years, and now it’s got great patina, and I’m going to get it running with a new Flathead, and drive it that way. I’m sure I’ll have 500 questions! So please be patient, thanks.
Thanks, thats me By the way on the running board in the red and white shirt. 75’ish? And me last week in the engine compartment! Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app

Hi & welcome. Man those photo's show lots of WOW. That is nice. Your profile does not show what part of the country you are located in but with the background foothills/mountains it surely is not around here. Do you still have that front license plate it shows in the early photo? Jimmie
Thanks Jimmie! Nor-Cal Foothills, Outside Sacramento, still have the plates, registered Non-Op. my Aunts name was Dolly, hence “33 Doll” it stuck ever since. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Hey Jimmie! I Found out my dad gave my aunt Dolly the plates back years ago! And she Died over a year ago! I have no contact with her ex-husband. I looked up the plate and it’s not available, because it’s still assigned to car! That kind of sucks! The only way they’ll let you replace the plate, in Californicatia, is if you’re just missing one! That bites! My wife says, why do you want to keep that name anyway? And I said well, it’s part of it’s history. And she says yeah, but this is a new chapter! And I said you have a good point! So I thought of a good alternative plate that’s available, but I don’t want to mention it, in case somebody might steal it! Lol!
