1936 Fordson Sedan delivery











These are a few shots of my English Fordson sedan delivery , it is quite an unusual car it was registered in London in 1936 to a plumbing company, Although used as a commercial vehicle it is tiny by today's standards due in part to the fact English roads were so small .Fordson was attempt by Ford motor company to build cars in England they partnered with a tractor builder from England and used a 8 hp. motor ! Its really cool and very rare, I have been told by a English car club they feel like it may be the only sedan delivery in America .Sadly I may have to sell this bit of history, anyone know Jay Leno ?I think he.d be a great owner for this car!

MERRY CHRISTMAS !!


We wish you all happy holidays and may the Lord bless your familys with peace , love and prosperity in the new year !

The nova bruiser is awakened

Well thanks to Albert and Mike we've made a little progress on the Nova .The front cap is now installed including the grill and bumpers that took a little massaging to fit well. Got quite a lot of the wiring done too , and we got to hear it fire up for a short while but it was getting late !None of us realized it was 11:30 when we finally cranked it off with open headders and let it rip while we tried to adjust all those little things!,...Well we were soon to find out quickly that the time was late cause we woke up my mom who was rattled out of bed by the old rumbler!We all had a good laugh bout that!The big block sounded good and I was happy to smell a little smoke !We might have a small issue with the steering column ,it was a column shift and I ground off the shift lever and filled the subsequent hole but it seems to have a lot of slop in the action of the switch , even with a new switch.I'll take it back apart and give it a once over !
