Man your whole life just owns. All that stuff is neat as gently caress but I guess I just don't know what to look for, or something.

I imagine he has searching craigslist down to a science by now :v:

I mainly meant all the things that aren't cars.

Speaking of which, is there a good resource for identifying old-ish bicycles? I have what I believe is a French road bike from '61 that doesn't have any usable markings on it, and would like to know more about it. It's not valuable, just interesting.

Nice score on the Ford, a nailhead and T5 is gonna be the perfect drivetrain for that.

Only if you reverse the flow through it and put an exhaust column straight up from the valley. It must be higher than the windshield, but that doesn't look very hard to do.

The anecdote I heard was that there are more '32 Fords currently registered in CA than were ever built.

I don't know if that's strictly accurate, but it wouldn't surprise me.

1960 custom cab! Does it have the big rear glass? Kinda looks like it might...

It does. I just don't get what people see in these trucks. A lot of guys in my club have them and never seem to pay a lot for them but when they sell them magically they go for a lot. I was thinking about buying one just to flip!

I like mine because it was my dad's truck when I was growing up, so I don't know that I can give a rational description for why I think they're cool. But I think they're much more handsome than the '61-'66 body style, at least, even if you (along with everyone) might prefer the '53-'56.

I think the big rear glass is fairly uncommon; I've never seen another one up close, anyway.
