    I just subscribed. I've had a few '36 Fords since the '50's. and I love 'em. I've always wondered how a vehicle this awesome could have just dissappeared, but you're doing the best thing. (I was going to say "the next best thing", but realized that would be wrong for many reasons.)

    Keep up the excellent work!:)

  24. It's about time someone re-created this iconic '36. Had to be the best American example
    of the Art-Deco period; truly unique!

    Best of luck with the project.
