Cliff,
Trust you!
To be honest, if I had bought Chevrolets instead of Fords, I would be spruking their virtues instead. One in, all in, for the purpose they were intended.
Don't think my Dad had a preference for one over the other. By the time I got around to making serious effort to look for one to restore, Dad had passed away & opportunity to discuss these wonderful vehicles was permanently lost. Sad on many levels!

These 2 photos show the extremes of age & health of the man my restoration is in memory of!

That's Dad standing with his arms in the air.
