My Twin

I would like to introduce you to my twin. Well, actually we were born the same year. This is a 1936 Ford Coupe. Have to admit that it looks a lot better than I do. But I am sure we both have been through major overhauls along the way, much of it in recent years for me. And we both have a lot of miles on us.

I just love this car, and its great paint job, even though it never had that color when new. The interior is yet to be upholstered but, other than that, it looks pretty much restored. I don't know that I can say that about myself. Back when I was a young guy, my dream was to have one of these in a convertible, with that great rumble seat, Wow! I only wish I owned this one!

Very nice. Quite jealous.

Needless to say, I love it and your image of it too. Though not the same year as me, I have always wanted one too. I would be fine with a coupe like this one or even a sedan. ~BV~

Nice capture and I love your humorous comparison. I'm sure your miles had much more meaning and worth. ;-)

at least you still get around, as this spiffy car seems capable of too...with good maintenance and the odd repair job we can all remain active..
