    Took our '40 for ride today, I don't recall taking a Hot Rod for a ride in February. December, January, March but never February! Took this picture at Torch River Bridge looking over Torch Lake and the Sand Bar. (Northern Lower Peninsula of Michigan for those who don't know about Torch Lake) A very popular hang out all summer long. 65 degrees here today, but sounds like winter is returning this weekend! Darn! lol

  11. I don't know how you "northern states" guys survive the winter. We're on day 58, of 2017, and I'm 48 days of driving time behind the wheel of a '40 Ford.

    I really like the wheel comb on your 40. Please give details - rims, hub caps and beauty rings - thanks.

    A couple of shots from the last week. My brother in law's 40 pickup project and my 40 stake truck hiding in a compact parking spot last Tuesday, at my office in Branson, MO.

    I was wondering if the 40 coupe was the only Forty at the show. Thanks for posting up all of these beauties 40LUV!

  23. I've been daydreaming about a future 40 convertible for the past month or so. I was talking with @cvstl about it the other night, and the next morning he asked if I had seen Ryan's post about Blake's 39 at the castle. Man, I gotta say...that was like dumping gasoline on the fire.

    I'm picturing something like this, with a stance like @D.Conrad 's 36 coupe, where the skirts are at the edge of the wheel and the front tire filling the fender opening. FL14_r0159_01.jpg

    Love it! Thanks OL55! Tom Davidson did a great job on the photo too! Think that will have to be my new screen saver for awhile.
