Hi, I wanted to share with you a photo of my husband Tom & his '30 Model A Ford. When Tom was 16 (1957) he could not afford to buy the car for the asking price of $25! The owner called up one day and said, "if you come and get it now, you can have it." Tom did just as the guy asked....he has now had the car for 46 years!!! It is not a "show" car (but we do enter it in car shows), it's a everyday car. The photos were taken in late 1959, the Model A has been maroon with black fenders for the last 26 years....and the grandkids love being driven home from school in it!! P.S. back in the early '60's, Tom owned a "beautiful" black '35 Ford Coupe, sold it in '62 for $250 to pay the hospital bill when our son was born. Tom now owns; '31 Model A; '40 Cadillac LaSalle; '36 Ford....boys and their toys!!!! Bye for now Judy & Tom Metcalf
