My Cruiser

Finally picked up my Dads car from his old house. Took a while to get it but shes finally all mine. Cruised for a few days and now its back in storage. Hope to get it out a few more times this year. Damn car is like a time machine its so mint.
1964 Ford Fairlane 500 260. Car has 34.5K org miles. The entire car is all orig except one panel and you could never tell by looking.
Thanks DAD RIP! I will keep her just like you always did!!!

Sorry I know its in the wrong section but I wanted to share with my LT1 brothers!

Very nice. I inherited my dad's '56 Ford after he passed. I didn't ******* want it, but there was no way I was going to sell it. Now it just sits in the garage. I don't drive it hardly ever anymore. Probably going to sell it this winter.
I hate this grieving bullshit!
