Wonderful car. but please get some better rims. No i don't mean 20"s or anything like that. How about nice steal rims with center caps and beauty rigs. Anything but those cheap wal mart specials lol.
Pretty cool, Jake. I hope I can get my camcorder very soon, so I can give you and the rest of the YouTube community a 'virtual ride' in my dad's '74 Oldsmobile Cutlass, just like you've done for us in your grandfather's '38 Ford.
Very nice car! Has he thought about finding some old school chrome wheels for it? Very awesome to get out with your Grandpa like that I bet! Awesome... really awesome-- especially to share a memory like that with us!
Awesome piece of machinery. They don't build them like that anymore as the old saying goes. My dad had a 29 chevy a few years ago and what really amazed us was how small people must have been just that short time ago. We could just barely ride in the front seat and our arms were about touching and I was just a kid at the time. Makes sense though I suppose considereing how much better people are eating these days.
Can't beat the sound of a v8 Without all the modern dampening and silencing.
My neighbour has a race car with a little 215 / 3.5L v8, (known as the Rover v8 over here) but no mufflers, when he starts that up the whole neighbourhood knows about it :)
He may want to consider a EFI conversion. Really easy to do on Ford engines using 89+ mustang mass air computers and harness. More power and better fuel economy, self tuning in a way. But then the thing looks like its on life support... my car is a rats nest!
Jake...my hats off to your grandpa on that '38 Ford.....that car is soooo cherry and sounds sooooo dayum good....how long has it took him to restore it ?
Trust me I told him that like 8 times. He has the original moons with the V8 logo in them I keep telling him to put those on and get some modern whitewalls!
its like actually being there with them wich is really cool i mean you must really like doing video's for us to take your camera along and allow us to see these types of things
this one is nice. my self got a stundetbaker 1950 business coupe its kinda rare :) but your looks much cooler :P
