Enjoy seeing some of the Hot Rods but am presently engage in returning a 32 three window hot rod to stock. Edsel Ford's design is timeless. I love it just the way it came off the line in 32, same year as me.

It is often said that "it's only original once" and the right patina can make a car even more interesting. You're right Wayne, you can always change your mind later, but going back to the current stage would be very difficult to recreate. The car itself will tell you what to do. I think you made the right choice.

I salute all these builders, and love the cars! The only thing I don't like is those stupid band-aid tires. The dude who built that Datsun knows what I am talking about.

This pickup was parked in 1978, I found it in 40 yrs later and bought it in 2018. I did the electrical system and brakes, and it runs perfect. Sill 100% original, 6 Volt and all. Starts right up, all the gauges work, and is fun to drive the 3 on the tree.

New inner wheel wells tells a story. Finding a correct motor is not easy. So restoring likely would be a money pit. Interesting that looking at eBay posting, that they bothered to put ‘48’ heads on it. Like the ‘13’ heads, these came on more than just a GTO, and both were found on cars with an automatic. Many of these cars are better to just drive and enjoy. Any similar 1969 or 1970 motor can be tailored towards RA III specs. The real jump was to RA IV, where the 4 hp was a meaningless number. And some parts, like the flex fan, were specific.
