    If you're an early Ford V8 fan..........

     



    ..........then these pics might be of interest. http://donclink.com/Dearborn_2008_Thu/index.html Those not so familiar, "The Dearborn" is the most coveted award an old Ford enthusiast can win. This is a concours type event the "old duffers" do in the Early Ford V8 club.

    As we've talked about with some regularity here, as these guys age they or their widows will have to part with them. Some fine potential hot rod material here (I can feel you cringing Richard!) I find it interesting that there are almost no 3 window coupes in this lot. Hmmmm, could it be those rotten rodders have scooped almost all of them up already?

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Now Bob, Who would cut up a lowly 3 window with all the B-400`s the old fossils have tucked away? (!!!)

    The only 3 window that I could positively identify was a '36 and in that year I prefer a 5 window.
