My first car was a 1951 Ford I bought for something like $200 back in 1958 or so. Believe it was green. Flat head V8. Those were the days when you could get an Early Sheibe (SP?) paintjob for $19.95. A friend(?) of mine said he could paint it for the same price. I let him do ikt and a week later the car was orange peel city! Arghhh! Anyway, I wrecked the car and boght a 1949 Ford. I liked the dash in the '51 much better so put the '51 dash in the '49. Since the wiring was all hard wired in those days it took a lot of work and thought for this (then) 17 year old kid.

BTW, I am putting a link to this site on my new Classic Car Resource Guide. Check it out at:
