When driving truck I used to do that with cans and even pork chops and steaks on the manifold. I wonder if that manifold on that old ford would get hot enough to broil a steak? What is the black sedan behind the Ford in the opening pic? Is there a chart of Farts per Gallon when cooking beans?
I believe that black sedan was a 1930s Packard though I can't say for sure. As for the farts per gallon you'd be best query our distinguished Scatological Eminence Mr Filthie-cus himself.
The unobstructed side windows with suicide doors and those louvered side cowls make me want to say its a 1935 Hudson Terraplane two door sedan with the louvered side cowls from the coupe.
Ha, wrong on both counts . Its a 1934 Ford Victoria . The finer angled louvers , the suicide doors , and large side windows all match https://content.invisioncic.com/r277599/monthly_2016_09/v2.jpg.ce9387ceb88afc0a36de2b911cb4f8b2.jpg
My uncle built one back in the day. It amazed me to learn that Ford still builds parts for them to this day. He had one as a young man and missed it. He spoke of warm summer days putt-putting round the countryside and said the rumble seat was the place to be with your gal.
I wonder if he was being a dirty old buzzard when he said that...? ;)

ReplyDeleteCan't imagine it was a very nice ride back there , might be a good spot for the dogs.

Kind of difficult to drive the car from back there though , and if someone else is driving you can't be a dirty buzzard.
