Default My not so ford project

hi all
has been a while since i was last here lol
well ive done it again and gone to an auction to look around lol and i came home with a car
here is a glympse of it lol funny thing is i took this picture as a joke thinking i will never be able to afford it (excuse the mug standing next to it :thumbs_up

and then when it was time for it to come throught the auction i suddenly found my arm flying up and the next thing i new the hammer dropped and i owned it :thumbs_up:
heres after the auction (my mom standing therealm: )

and going on the trailer


back home

and on the drive

at this point i decided it needed a clean due to all of the dust on it
came up rather well:thumbs_up:





then the next day it was on the the polishing and hoovering
