I like it. Why not? If you have the means and can do it, and it's what you want to do, go for it!





I haven't seen it in person yet and won't until this covid-19 thing is
behind us.

It's a 1940 Ford Business Sedan with a flat-head, 221ci V8.
Interior looks immaculate in the pictures and I noticed
whoever restored it added modern safety requirements like
flasher control and after-market stalk for blinkers.
Probably required to register and drive on the road.

Only thing I noticed in the pictures that I didn't like
was the pan under the engine to collect oil drippings
I assume.


That might be a "just in case" pan to protect their floor. It would sure be an attention getter at the local cruise-in or car show.
