HAHA – Bonus points if you bring carrots for the horse hood ornament! π₯π΄”
The guy does have a sense of humor, with a 1960 Ford sitting next to it! No offense to our Ford friends, but a 60 Ford is not one of the more collectables that Henry built, IMO! LOL!
truth in advertising! No horse on hood, no sale!
Heck, Iβd buy it and show up with 25lbs of carrots and saddle just to see if heβd lower the price. Too bad Iβm on the east coast of Canada.
@colin thank you! I try to have a sense of humor in all aspects of life…driving shouldn’t be boring
@muley good point! just updated the pics to show the horse hood ornament!
@fraser I love me a good laugh, so I probably would consider lowering the price hahaha can always bake a good carrot cake π
