Bertha is one beautiful car.

Nice one. Its always interesting to see different vehicles where the Ford flathead was used. I recall searching a junkyard back in the early seventies and seeing a little red two door car, might have been a convertible. Guessing it was early sixties, late fifties vintage. Under the hood was a flathead V8! No idea what the car was .Not exactly a Ford, but mostly Ford parts. A 1948 Allard drop head coupe with stock 21 stud ('37 style) flathead. During my search for a '35 Ford I fell in love with this car and I could afford it even though only about 800 were made.

Man, look at that right-hand drive, column-shift mechanism......I'll bet that's fun to adjust initially. Fan drive from the top is noteable, too. DD

Someone has to 'represent' for the four-door ragtops. My Dad and I had many great hours working on this one...
I need a 32 but my wife says if I drag another old car home I could sleep in the shed with it. Well it looks like I am going to sleep in the shed. I have sleep in worse places. The trouble winter coming on and there no heat in that shed. One thing around here don't say any thing about a 32. Her eyes turn red and I mean real red then I get a look that could kill a dog.That not going to stop me so we will see who boss around here. Better go now before she reads this.
