Very cool. Looks like you come from a genuine ford family! Welcome to our little slice of heaven down here in the bottom row!

LOL, thanks! Yep, 's in this family.

Here's the cars Dad has.

1910 Model T - He's owned for about 45 years. Bought from Bill Harrah then restored.
1913 Oakland - Largely unrestored, great driver
1924 Model T - He restored in 60's and sold, then bought back in 2000's. Same car!
1932 Model B Woodie Wagon - He's owned for about 55 years. Dearborn Award winner.
1932 Model B Five Window Coupe - Just finished body off resto.
1935 Phaeton - Had to pay some old geezer OVER asking price to get it.
1939 Deluxe Convertible Sedan - Bought from a guy who owned it 60 years.

Conclusion

Well, we've come to the end of this project. The goal was to get this thing back into one piece, repair the rust and make it sell-able.

I roughed out most of the dents, primed the bare metal and sprayed it green with some house paint. Then we put all of the do dads back on and some wire wheels.

Looks really good!. From 20 feet.....even better from 50

Thanks for following along!

What an improvement. With the current fad in hot rodding being what it is your green paint may stay on the car for a long time...
