That's an amazing looking old Ford. Henry Ford would be proud. And, of all places, to find one, looking that good. Argentina. Great shot. Thanks for sharing.

Now that would make a great hot rod. Drop a Chevy SB in, put modern suspension under it, drop the whole thing down about a foot, big tars on the rear and skinnys on the front...
Heh, heh.
Nice find and shot by the way.

Old Fords were actually produced in many countries.
I think they still have factories in Argentina.
Henry invented the concept of the WORLD CAR.

That's interesting to know. I do know Fords are made today in Mexico. And the pay is very good, compared to most jobs in Mexico.

Driving in West Cork, Ire. I came upon a shiny Model T monument in the center , my guess is that is where Henry Ford was born.

Chevy fans use to say FORD. Fix Or Repair Daily. That quote is long obsolete now. My High School friend, bought a 1940 Ford Coupe with a busted flat head V8 engine. Had running boards. His father helped him buy it right after High School graduation. It took him 10 years to rebuild that car to his satisfaction. He finally decided to put a Chevy 327 cubic inch V8 engine in it. I asked him why a Chevy 327 engine? His reply was. That engine is just too damn good.

I admire hot rods, especially ones with quality workmanship, but I prefer vehicles the way they came from the factory. I have five Model As that are stock, they don't go fast, but fast isn't as important to me as it once was. If I came across one that was really beat up and past the point of restoring it at a reasonable cost, I might consider doing a hot rod, especially a '32 roadster that was my first build in 1962. Buick nail-head engine and running gear, by all accounts it was a jalopy, but I wish I had it back. Here are two of mine

You would destroy that antique to make a (s)hot rod?
