Welcome to the motley crew of the Flying Dutchmen....

I like that crank handle you got there, looks like a Ford idea.....

:tomato::drink:

Nice car there too, got a shot of them wheels??

That Ford comment goes back a while in family comments/history I must have mentioned it here in the past....

anyway....at some rather young age, I asked Dad what was his first car....he said a T Ford....ok.....what did you buy AFTER that?? a Chebby....

why Dad?? he looked at mom and just snickered.....Dad was born in '05 mom in '03 sis in '31, me in '44.....so the time frame and my relationship to being a car person/hotrodder may make for some sense.....

turns out..Dad broke/sprained his wrist on a T crank, engine kicked back on him apparently a very common happening....

:rofl::crutches:
