Thread: Field find in Oklahoma

Tweet

So I'm back in Oklahoma last week, visiting a friend of mine.
His cousin comes into his shop and says " Think I found ya an ole car while I was out hog huntin"
Shows us a pic (he took on his cell phone) 10 minutes later we're all in my truck drivin out to the middle of nowhere Oklahoma.(20 miles down a dirt road)
Gotta climb over 2 barbed wire fence's and hike about 1/2 mile in.
Lo and behold we come across this.
The best part--- we get a hold of the owner of the property and he didn't even know it was out there.
So we end up buyin it for almost nothing.
100% complete with very little rust out (maybe 2 days work)
Yep there is still good iron out there !!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is a cool find.

Congrats looks cool. no frt. end?

Awesome find, Congrats, is that a '39 Ford??? My curiosity is killing me.

It's a 36 and ,yeah Dennie the front clip was there also. (battery in camera died)
Just no frame, but who cares about that.
will just order a complete roller chassis.

The moral of the story is we all need to take up hog hunting
Very cool car. Please post your build, so we all can enjoy it also.

Very cool find, Don. Are you taking it back to AZ, or will your friend be building it in OK?

you lucky dog and no big shot gun holes

You have all us guys living in tin poor States wishing we had places like that to go and find this stuff. Great find............36's are one of my favs.

I know that most everyone is aware of the intelligence, experience and "WIT" of many of the members of various Hot Rod Forums but I truly think that is one of the funniest comments I have seen in quite some time. Thanks for the sore ribs.

End of hi-jack!

Now that is a neat find...!
