I now have both cars at home. Yesterday I jacked 1 rear wheel off the floor...and the motor turns over in the 24! The 24 was last on the rode in 1956 when there was a Fire inside the car.Looks like it started at the drivers left foot. The back tires even hold air.

I'm glad you did too!!! Always a treat to see the as found photos, You got a nice deal. My wife always gives the sideways smirk when we pass an old barn and say i bet there is an A in there, but as we see the T's and A's are....Thanks for posting
 
Don't know why I enjoy the picture of all the model t's (couple a's) but I do. Love it. Thank you.
 
I must have missed the story on this find. Do you mind sharing how you found these 2 great T's. These photos are like dreams I've had stumbling across a car hidden away in a shed. Great pic's. Have fun with your new projects.
 
James go down a few post...The story is there.
.....a man posted a add on craigs list on 11-20 I saw the add on the 22nd,on the 23rd the add was still there.So I responded asking for a phone number. 30 min.later I was on the phone with him. I bought them on the 24th.

Thanks,
I am more fond of the old cars in this state than in the restored state! Even the smells are special. When I was 12 years old out scouting for cars in the 60s, I said to my father, "Pull over, there is an old car in that garage (an old free standing garage). He said oh **** or something. It was a pretty solid ol building and I had a hard time finding a crack to see through. In the darkness I finally made out the grille of what I thought was a 34 Ford. Turns out it was a 34 Graham Paige, and I understand the owners had completely forgotten it was there! We tried to buy it, but the heir who was a dentist in Logan, Utah, eventually retrieved it from Idaho and restored it to beautiful condition!
