Hi all
Just to let you know that after two and a half years in storage, my '32 Model B is out and being prepared for its MoT early next week. I have pictures but Photobucket has totally baffled me...
Despite laying idle for that time, everything's still working just as Henry intended, including the brakes, wiper and horn.
Fingers crossed with mr MoT man!

Looking forward to some pics! How about some details? Is it stock or a rod? Jesus, I'm salivating just thinking of '32 Fords.... ;D

It's totally stock other than a 24 horse lump which replaced the 14 horse lump. Believe it or not, other than that all it had was a brush paint job in 1959!

photobucket is easy matey. register, create an album.then click on browse at the top, which should give you access to your documents folder. select the pics you want, then click submit. once uploaded these will appear on screen with some addys under them. you want the bottom one, that starts . right click, then copy. go to your retro post, right click again and paste. we should all be able to see your pics. sorry if i appear patronizing, don't know how good u are with your machine.I'm curse word, but if i can do this you can.hehe ;D

That is sooo cool!!!! ;D It's totally stock other than a 24 horse lump which replaced the 14 horse lump. Does that mean it's a genuine UK car, but with a US spec engine? (Many Fords had smaller engines for the UK because of the RAC 'horsepower' tax)
