Some pics of my crusty old 50 ford

Jim, the jailbar was a '46 I owned before I got the '47 coupe. I sold it fall of '08 to a friend down the street.
Tenenbaums is a scrap metal recycler in North Little Rock.

 

i like the car man. as for paint dark purple would look killer with some silver striping imo

 

I've always been partial to black or the OE dark blue on a shoebox. Though, that being said, I'd hate to cover up that great pinstriping. Everything looks great, love that choice of steering wheel!

 

Thanks

 

Cleaned on my flathead parts a lil found another 8ba and an overdrive trans ill be picking up soon

 

Got a nos foglight for the grill

 

Got a nos hadees heater for it. Felt weird to open a box that hasnt been opened in 60 somethin years

 

Cool stuff! I picked up my 9 yr old grandson in Russellville last Friday (he lives in Little Rock, and his mother meets me in R-ville) and the first thing he asked was, "Are we going to eat at CJ's?" Of course!

 

Some pics of the 50 and my bucket

 

Man it is perfect just the way it is. You have a Kustom and a hot rod T, how cool is that? You are living the American car guys dream, enjoy.

 

Wow thanks man!

 

Looks great! Cool rod too!!

 

Like your car .Your improvements are spot on!

 

Looks Great just get in it and drive Love it Rog

 

Used some rubbing compound on it and got the paint lookin alot better

 

When I had my '50 I switch out my center light a lot - clear, yellow, red , and blue. I was still on 6 volt and yellow got me home safe and sound one night - got caught in a heavy downpour and the yellow was brighter than the head lights.

 

How do you decide which one to drive?

 

I got this too

 

You can call that one Rudy!

 

Took em to a car show today

 

Had lots of fun at the car show yesterday the 50 got lots of attention. I ended up leavin the hood up cause people was askin if it still had the flathead. Got to hear several stories about flatheads and hot roddin from some old guys at the show. Was a pretty awesome day im proud of my crusty old ford.

 

Wouldn't call that crusty, in fact it's a nice car.

 

Thanks man ive been slowly knockin the crust off it

 

That don't look crusty to me either!

 

Looks like a nice 50 to me too. Running original motor is spot on. My 49's flat six needed too much to bring back to life. Found 289/ c-4 combo going in place soon. What wheels or covers are you going to use?

 

Thanks Im running 54-55 olds hubcaps

 

Here is a pic of the caps

 

Found a better trunklid and started shaving the licence plate area out

 

Nice ride , lookin' good

 

Thanks buddy
