I just came across this '31 Ford Doodlebug on CL. Located on Long Island, NY. Not mine. https://longisland.craigslist.org/grd/d/1931-ford-doodlebug/6749893483.html

Been eying this one for a bit now, Dave. It has some pluses, running is certainly one. It looks like a complete, original torque tube/driveshaft, also.

Judging by the patches on the lower cowls, there a fair amount of rot.

Can someone edit Dave's post from 'Not mine.' to 'Not mine, yet.'?

And then after some scrubbing:

LOL! Good one, Cat! Are you a graduate of the Ellis School of Cranking?:tango_face_grin: I'm trying to be good here.:tango_face_smile:
The DB in your "after" pic is very nice.

Ellis, I thought of you as soon as I saw it, and wondered if you might have seen it too, or not. Yes, it looks a little rough around the edges, but nothing you couldn't handle.:tango_face_smile: Price? I imagine that there would be at least some room to work.

No, I was a victim of it a time or two back when I was a mod. There was a birthday issue, the great avatar debate, and a couple of others.

It wasn’t so constant back then, when he was working. Now that he’s retired? Sheesh.

Well, we both know that earning a Cranker badge doesn't come easy. A recipient has to have done a lot of cranking in order just to qualify. There is only one "recipient" to this date that I know of.:tango_face_grin:
