Default Ford V8

Hello Bill,

My grandfather was a vet during World War 2. In 1938 he had bought what he described as a Ford V8.

Presumably it must have been much like the one in your photo.

Because of his official duties during the war, he had quite a generous ration.

He taught my mother to drive on his way to farms on business.

I have often wondered which of the Fords this would be. As this was in the UK, it was presumably a British built one.

By all accounts it was a fast car.

Regards

Nick Balmer
