Went off the deep end.

Hi all,

Yesterday I went off the deep end and bought a 34 Ford Vicky. It is the late 34 with the slant back, steel and not chopped and the roof is not even filled. Don't know when I am going to start on it or finish the Olds first. Might even sell the Olds, one never knows. Anyway, quite the day.

I will get some pics posted as soon as I take them. The friend I bought it from has it stored for me until I am ready to start on it. A couple of years if necessary. Nice to have friends with big garages.

Decisions, decisions, Sounds like a great find. Keep em both if you can, You will probably miss the Olds if you let it go.

I got it with the brand new ram jet 350 so that will stay. The front is an aftermarket MII, but I don't know what is under the rear yet, it needs work back there.

Hey Doug,
New Ram jet 350!
Not a bad start!
Sounds great.
Good luck on your build.
