1932 Model "B" Ford - Five Window Coupe

George K. Laney, Sr. (grandfather) from Renton, WA first rebuilt this car

and was towed to Columbia, SC in the fall of 1961. I started driving this car to 

A.C. Flora High School, Columbia, SC the same year. Then put in storage in the
summer of 1963 as we moved to Bad Kreuznach, Germany where I finished high school
in 1966. Briefly drove car while in army. 1970 got out of army and moved to Enterprise, AL
where I brought car out of storage and had it painted butter scotch. Car went back
into storage around 1980 where it sat till August 2004.

Coupe painted butter scotch with black trim in 1971.

 

  
Moved to my shop after 20+ years in storage.
