What make of car is in that picture?
The caption below the picture said circa 1925 so it's probably a 1925 Ford T-touring - - - - but that's just a guess on my part.
i hope the link works .. i drove one of these to school in the early 70`s .. mine was a 406 six pac though :)http://jalopnik.com/#!5764393/some-o...-worth-keeping
That's really a nice car, I hope someday he decides to restore it.:D
Hello Hoss. Thought i'd check in after a long time. Whats been going on with you? I've been selling and buying/building guns :D
Lost alot of interest in modding my car, and now i'm more focused on firearms, as i just mentioned. Still love my stang, as slow as it is.
Hoss--the mention of 406 and moonshiner--reminds me of the days in the Army at Ft. Benning Ga and coming over into Alabama to Pheonix City drag strip--I had a 59 ford 2 door business coupe with a 4 speed
nascar/usac 406 with a set of 2x4s from H & M----traded it to a guy I worked for part time fot a 64 comet and tho I thought he was going to race it, he sold it to a moon shiner and it disappearred from the area---don't know where it went, but would like to have it back--was a 292 y block ex dept agriculture state Ill when I got it---plain jane as they could get--not even seat belts or padded dash, windshield visor only on one side----but it was 12 volt and had a 9 inch rear
Check it out, Gang, 8 coats for only $35.

in the interest of checking my body work i sprayed a bit of topcoat on most of my repaired spots .. that was tuesday nite .. today it is still as wet as when i shot it :mad:.. seems i used the wrong catalyst ..
as i am the resident " tube bending expert :HMMM: " here at work i recently got to fab up tubes for a milling fixture .. the fixture is 6 feet long and 3 feet wide .. it took 54 feet of tubing and over 100 nuts/sleeves and 40 something elbows to complete ..
nice work Hoss---are those AN flares or the MS stuff???
Looks good, that's a plumbing nightmare
Kudos - hoss
AN8 ..37 degree flares .. now they tell me i get to plum two more .. gantry machine runs in sets of three ..
oh well the tubing is cheaper when you get 200 feet
So for February/March, I built this.

Circa 1958
Would have really been cool,
if the '57 would have been mine and not my Parents.

One that got away!
Sold this back in the early 90's to the president of the Oldsmobile Club in Denver for $5900.00. It's a very low mile (32,000 if I remember right) 1970 Oldsmobile SX-455 with the turbo 400 and 3:73 pos-a-trac 12 bolt rear end. That car was a blast to drive but, didn't get very good gas mileage.

i know some of you have racoons you feed ... ferrel cats you feed .. and maybe even a poison snake or two you tend to but my favorite beast is this mockingbird .. i have fed it all winter long and now it expects to be fed .. it will wait at the tree by my front door till i give it something .. i can get within 3 feet of it .. practically has tamed me it has ..
Cool beans, Hoss, that also happens to be the Texas State Bird !
Never seen a Mockingbird, Hoss.
I get these guys in my backyard every fall. It's fun to watch them hunt the red squirrels.

you need to get you a small "gee haw" mule or hinny (preferably a molly) and you'll be all set - - - - handles should be easy to reproduce - - - - cool score, Hoss
Hoss, don't you have a couple of horses? A Mustang and a Pinto. :D
BTW, I like this random stuff.
being as today is " all fools day " everyone in my department is going to call in sick today .. as fridays are the end of the week shipping panic it should give the boss quite a rise .:eek:.i tried to think of something to fool you folks with but you`re too sharp for that :HMMM:

Nice pics Hoss.
Great pics, Hoss, those flamed roadsters always seem to stand the test of time, don't they? For some reason, I never get tired of seeing them.
Just finished this morning's breakfast.
I haven't seen a double yolked egg in years
and I luvz good runny yellers for sopping.
The main reason I eat breakfast is to take
my cholestorol medicine with ! :LOL::p
