This 1951, Deluxe Edition, V8, Ford F1 has been in restoration nearly five years. It was recently completed and will enter the Mississippi State Fair for the first time this year. An original Crystal Springs truck it has been restored to a pristine condition. The wood slats in the new bed came from Central Mississippi and were finished locally. The truck runs and drives perfectly.
1951 Ford F1 truck formerly known as our "Sanford and Son" truck. Restoration was an after thought - the vehicle was originally acquired for a "parts" truck, but we didn't have the heart to destroy it. The truck is all original and powered by the traditional Ford flathead V8 engine. It won best in its truck class at the 2008 State Fair of Texas vehicle exposition.
The 1936 Pheaton (Ford) is identical to one President Roosevelt toured the country in. The color is named Washington blue and it is powered by a Ford flathead V8 engine floor shift transmission. This particular auto came back into the US through the Port of Houston in the late 1990s from Latin America and speedometer had to be changed back to miles per hour. The vehicle is all original and has won numerous awards - including Best of Show at the State Fair of Mississippi.
We refer our 1948 Ford as our "road" car! Labeled as such as it has a Columbia 2-speed rear end (which works much like a modern day overdrive) and a heater. It has been on numerous trips - a little hot in the summer though - but, a nice ride. The car has won numerous awards at local shows.
The 2-door 1940 convertible is an all original Ford manufactured the first year that Mercury's were made. It has been completely restored and with the flathead V8 engine it can travel.
This 1931 Model A (B model engine and transmission) is one of our favorite autos and has been for years. Behind the passenger compartment is the rumble seat where children of this era were seated. It has been on a number of Model A trips around the local area and is equipped with a hand crank for when the battery is dead - but, it would take a good man to pull the crank!
1957 Cushman Scooter - In the wall behind the scooter is the original bill of sale when sold in 1957 in Alabama for $427. All original, runs great, and yes it does do 40 miles per hour - at least going down hill! 40 MPH required by Mississippi to obtain a car tag to be driven on streets.
1974 Caprice Classic. Muscle car from the early 1970 when gasoline was cheap and power was everything. Equipped with the 454 engine and a carburetor blower it will pass anything on the highway - except a filling station where you better stop!
Can anyone imagine that this 1952 rust-bucket might be our next project! Have already added a new radiator, seat (a must, of course), and fuel tank. Truck runs great and is our new "Sanford" truck. Incidentally, the 51 Ford to the left looked much like this truck before restoration was started.
1952 Ford F1 purchased as a parts-vehicle and now a regular driver for us. With a little junk in the bed it will serve as our "Sanford and Son" truck! Runs great and quite an eye-catcher!.
Throughout the "garage/museum" are a number of antique memorabilia items dating to the era of the vehicles. Texaco and Coke Cola are prominent brands from these periods and below are a number of these items.
One of our treasured items are two large murals with pictures of our Fords on them. Can't you just imagine these vehicles stopping by for a few grocery items or a fill-up?
Our garage/museum was designed to exhibit our vehicles and provide a fun place to entertain and perform our frequent maintenance activities.
