Update.... I am not a paid member as yet, but of course will become one once I make the purchase of either the 41 in discussion or I find my preference which is a 40 or 41 Coupe (with opera seats). So, will probably will need some help in making contact with Mr. Davis. Thanks again. Sh*lly

That would be great if you could provide. I am at loss with anyone I know down there so your recommendation would be appreciated. As mentioned, my wife and I are flying to Oakland then driving down to Turlock on Tuesday to view the Ford. If your friend is available and close by in Modesto, that would be perfect.I am new to the forum, so not sure, other than search how to find Mr. Davis. I might have to get back to you if stumbling. Thanks for the reply. Sh*lly

sthielwcd3, if you are a V-8 Club member check your roster for Terry Davis in Modesto. Modesto is only 15-20 minutes from Turlock. Terry is a long time member and is very knowledgeable about Ford V-8's. If you are not a member send a private message to my inbox and I will give you Terry's number. I don't put people's numbers on websites unless I know it is O.K. with them.

I bought a 50 Ford once only from pictures and found out that it was not as advertised. If you are a member of the EFV8 Club look in your roster to find someone in the Turlock area and contact them. I have done this several times with great results. I always offer to pay for their time and gas but they have all offerred to do it for free. You might also see if the seller of the car is an EFV8 member. If so ask if the car has recieved a Dearborn award. This would give you an idea how authentic it is. Finally, depending on the above, take the time to drive down and see it. I also live in WA and, when $24,000 is involved a few days trip to Turlock is a reasonable investment.

I don't know any appraisers in Turlock, but Ralph Hubbard from Pasadena, Ca is very knowledgeable about the early Fords. Maybe one of the CA guys can provide his business address and phone number.
