- Our buddy Jason (@308_rod_shop) found a 1935 Ford 3W coupe that's been sitting since 1958. Jason was told it was a 1934 Ford coupe, excited to see it and make an offer he waited 6 years to finally get to see it.
When he got there to check it out for the first time, he noticed right away it wasn't a 1934 but a 1935 Ford coupe... still interested in making a deal, Mike decides he has to have it. He's been wanting a 1935 Ford 3W for a long time. It was perfect timing. He just sold the #8balldeluxe Tub he built and it was headed to Japan!
So off to Texas we went to try and recover this hidden gem!
Mike's plans are to keep it relatively the same as found but cleaned up and we'll get to do a "Will it run" shortly in the future, so stay tuned!! Follow him on IG @hollowell_motor_co
Special thanks to our buddy Jason Brackeen for always including us! Follow Jason on IG @308_rod_shop
Another special thanks to Mrs. Wanell Smith for being there when we got the coupe freed from the barn and for selling it!

My 1st car was a 1935 Ford 3 window coupe, I bought for $75. This was in In 1962, when I was 14. I worked all summer picking strawberries, beans, etc & mowing yards to earn $$, so I could buy it. The car was in pieces, so I had to spend several days putting it back together, just to drag it home. Enjoyed your video.
That's pretty awesome!! Thanks for watching!
So tell us some more history about you and your '35 3W coupe! (how long did you have it? etc.)
We just picked it up last weekend.... Mike bought it, I just got to help and do the videoing.
@@chaddilacdesigns I think he was talking about the guy that bought one in 1962 lol
Neat, my first car was a 49 Plymouth I gave 4 dollars for the car, 50 dollars for a flathead six, and 8 dollars for four 8 ply 16” used tires , year was 1965.
I wouldn't change that body at all! Clean it up, give it a fresh black paint job and if the engine can't be saved then drop in an original flat head V-8 and just drive the car! If the engine can be fixed then keep the car all original. No dumbass chopping and restorodding, just bring it back to it's former glory. There is already enough JUNK on the highways already. This car is just too cool to screw it all up.
Agreed! Next we'll try to do a will it run, the engine actually wasn't locked up, so that's promising!
Dig em up and drive em🤘✌️🇺🇲
Totally agree.
Yeah please don't chop the top
Yes. It’s deserv to bring it back to original condition
I fell in love with her just seeing her sitting in the barn. What a treasure. Take good care of her.
Thanks! It's gonna be awesome! Will it run comes next!!
God Bless this Woman... She knows the history of the family car's and can tell the story.
She was a fun lady to talk with!
Man, why couldn't I have friends like these guys!!! Literally pulled this beauty from a barn, cleaned it up, washed it up and reassembled just to take to a local car show. What a group of men!!
Thanks man!!
I love the styling of the 1935 and 1936 Ford coupes. Beautiful cars!
Agreed!! So sexy!
I hope you appreciate the whole process of hearing about the car, seeing the car, wanting the car, and negotiating to buy the car, then pulling out the car to see sunlight for the first time in over 50 years. To a car guy, it doesn't get any more cool than that! This is a once in a lifetime experience. Hope you cherish it, and 1 day get her roadworks again.
We got all the info on it! Pretty cool stories!
65 years, I noticed that because I was born in 58. Cool find
Thank goodness Bad Chad didn’t get hold of her! She would be cut to pieces…
Yea he's good at cutting them up! LOL!
This coup can be worth $20k-$50 as we see it now, a real wanted car.
Awesome 35 glad you were able to get before the shed collapse on it. Nice to see you guys put everything back in the shed and put the wall back up ...now that's respect.
Yea we were super happy we got it! Wouldn't have been much longer!
It's a great find and I like it that Mike wants to keep it relatively the same as found. The '35 has always been a hotrod from new. The car is built the same year as my mother was born, 88 years of age.
Yea it'll look cool!
always glad to see the old ones come back.make it pretty.
please dont cut it up.
No cutting!!
I loved hearing Ms. Dorothy telling y'all about the history was fabulous, and loved hearing her Texas drawl, especially since I'm from Ft. Worth.
My Grandad bought a bunch of trucks from Dub Shaw over about 40 years or so. Thanks for finding this beautiful old car!
Thanks for watching!
Any of those old trucks still around?
@tetedur377 Yep, I'm sure that some of those trucks are still around..., just not around here. ;)
Cool ride ! That was fun to watch ,thx . Have fun with her .
Thanks for watching!!!
Mike & Chad.....Love watching you two working together and enjoying your finds! Wow...what a find!!
Thanks Rod!!

In spite of my extreme jealousy , I like these guys. Looking forward to following the progress on this one.
Thanks for watching!
What a great 👍 find guys 😉. That's amazing 🤩 how good she looks. Can't wait to see what you do with her 🙂.
Thanks for watching!
I’m 74 that thing was parked when I was 8 what a net old car, I remember back as far before first grade dad had an old 30’s something way back then.
That's pretty awesome!
Coolest video I've seen in a while. Love those 35 3 window fords. You lucky guys. 😎👏👏👏
Thanks man!!
Fixin to watch this with my morning coffee❤😮
Get another cup and watch it again! LOL!
Glad its been found and will be saved for future generations 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for watching!
That's an awesome find. What a car. They are all around us and we may not know it. I went looking for one today, but they had remodeled the barn and I could no longer look inside. No one was home to ask. I have my fingers crossed. 52 pickup.
They are hard to find! I dig the 52 Ford pickups, I have one by my entrance to my shop!
Great find. Looking forward to seeing more videos on this.
wow! what a find! Fix and cruise.
Pretty much!!
Holy Crap!!! That's awesome. Also, you boys need to stay in Okla. and leave this stuff for us TXNs!! :)
Haha, Jason lives in Paradise so it was in his backyard!!
Nice barn find I love it hope to see more
Thanks!
Love the cow coming into the picture, obvious car lover !
lol!!
Bike was cool too. Door may be holding building up. Like how the cows are interested.
I think you're right about the door lol!! The cows were hilarious.
My 1936 had a rumble seat in the trunk space! I'm in love with that car! My favorites are 34/35 with suicide doors, 1040, 1951 Victoria and 1956! Those were style setters! I also owned a1952 convertible!
Can't go wrong with any of the early ford cars! I like em all!
What a beautiful little car 👍👍
Yea thanks!
A 35 three windows is a dream car of mine. Awesome find!
Yea super cool cars!
Wow !!! It's all there, keep it all there ..... That's a GEM .... Nicely Done....😅
Thanks!!
Thank you for calling the DOOR PANELS not pathetic door cards
LOL!
This is such a wonderful barn find great video
Thank you!
Neat! One year before I was born...Dad had a Model T, a model A, a 1939 Apple Green pickup which he traded in when he bought a 1952 Deluxe Ford pickup when we were migrants up in Bay City, Michigan working in the chicory fields...
That's awesome!
Awesome find💯✌️
Thanks man!
I live a couple miles from this property. Nice find!!
Right on! It was definitely hidden!
Great find, I picked a 36 3 window about 10 years ago out of the woods. About the same condition and pick 2 cool cars out of a garage on my channel last week. I’m always hunting and finding cars at deals. They are out there. Thanks for sharing and I just subscribed for more.
-Spanky
Thanks Spanky!!
What a find! Congratulations! Always exciting! (Well...for those that see the finished car in their heads! )
Thanks man!
A radio was a super rare option on those. And it's continental kit. So cool 👍
yea man!
One of my favorite cars. What a score. You guys are handling it all perfectly. Keep us posted, I just had to subscribe. Good job !
Thanks!!! Thanks for watching!!
Well done!
Thank you!
She's a doll! Your so lucky! Enjoy!
Thank you!
Thats going to be a great car! Thank you for the video
Thank you for watching!
That is a beautiful car!
It was pretty awesome!
Wadda helluva arse!!! And I possessed the most beautiful car of all times: Buick Special Sedanette 1949, but this Ford IS THE LEGEND: Three-window-coupé-Ford.... The real-real wet dream!!
LOL!
Very Nice Car! Thanks for sharing. Ron PTL USA
Thanks for watching Ron!
You just got another subscriber.love the old 35 💯👍
Thanks man!!
So hard to imagine 88 years ago someone drove that home from the showroom ! When I was 14 in early 60's I spotted a 35/6 in this guys garage and would peek in occasionally then it was gone one day. It was just collecting dust..
I hope you get it running and back on the road without roddin it up.
Amen to "without roddin it up" (what I call "abominating") This ain't the 1950s any more.
Mike is going to leave it very close to original, just getting it going and updating the interior.
great looking car. I'm glad it was saved
Thanks!!
My Dad bought a blue 1935 coupe in 1960 for $50.00 and my earliest memories are watching the pavement go by through the battery hole on the way to the Ice house for Lone Star beer! It was just so much more stylish than the cars of the late 1960’s.
That car is the reason why I’m a hopeless car nut.
That's pretty awesome!!
Good show. Just found you guys. Hope for more.
Thanks man!!
best recovery ever what a kool kar
Thanks man!!
In '37 , when Willys duplicated this style of coupe = EPIC ! 🤩
But when Dodge duplicated this style in '41 = meh..not so much 🙄
Mega Thumbs Up ..thanks fer sharing .. and a warm HOWDY from Stagecoach Tx 🤠
😇❤
Agreed! LOL!
Interesting story behind the car and seeing it resting where they parked it 65 years ago! I hoped we were going to have a look under the hood too !
Video coming!
Damn straight old baby!
The stuff of dreams... to find an old car in a barn. This is a feel good video. Thanks.
right on!!
OH, OH, OH What a Beauty!!! Sooo Cool I have a 1935 Bus I'm restoring. I wish mine was in as good a shape as this car. Have Fun Boys!
1934 and 1935 were great years for Ford!
I am seventy four now... and my first real find was a forty ford business coup that was in a chicken coup. It was in terrible shape, I wish to include that I found mine in nineteen sixty three. I hated that the chickens and other critters had lived in this coup. It had set right against one wall and then tucked into the corner of the coup. Many rust outs including the frame was the worst of that cars life. I built it back on a sixty four Buick WildCat frame that did include the buick aluminum V8 engine and naturally a four speed. Back in those times was only stick or Forge welding. It did have by luck a solid brass radiator. It cost more for that radiator to be converted so to cool the Buick engine. I was forced to sell when one of my kids got sick. I do think on it some but so happy that it found a great new owner who by then painted it for its first time........ it was his wifes favorite jewelry color.... Turquoise and red .... blood Red pinstriping!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Frank Johnson had it stored above his wifes private bedroom. Meaning it had "Frequent" men visitors. I must admit that after I found out why.... just did seem like its right place in their home. Nevada..... need I say more????
that's awesome!
It's your car do as you want like you said if it feels right then do it.its whatever makes you happy I just love watching you two
Thanks!
WOW!!! AWSOME CAR !!!! FIRST TO YOUR CHANNEL MY SON MAX AND I ARE WATCHING MAX 8 YR.S OLD LOVES LOVES CAR SHOWS AND HE LIKES THAT OLD BIKE INSIDE THERE TOOO!!!!

SWEET WOMAN TO BAD IT WENT SITTING THAT CAR..ALL THE COWS ARE WATCHING IN THE RAIN..EWEET RIDE ,, NOT MUCH ON THE ROAD.. THX. PEACE...
Fox skulls. Nice!! Great rig!when I was a kid, we had a 1936. Great old car.
LOL!! Thanks for watching!
Nice car to bring back
It was super nice, very little rust!
My Dad owned one before WW2.Also can recall seeing one when I was 11 yrs old.
That's pretty cool!!
LOVE the cows in the video!!
LOL! Non paid actors!
Very cool looking 35 ford
Thanks!
A reaal 'Wow' moment for sure!
Thanks!
Major score. Just outstanding guys! Five *****
Thanks!!
My dad would love to have seen this. So will my son if I can somehow get this to him. ❤
thanks!
What a find, and a three window! '34 to '40 is in my opinion the pinnacle of elegance for car design, particularly American. '35/'36 Fords make beutiful customs, with a chop, hydraulics, and just a few other tasteful mods you're bound to build an absolute dream car 👍🏻🖤🏴☠️
Agreed! Thanks!!
I know this will break your heart, but we can't be friends. Friends don't let friends modify rare cars. Go find a square body to do that crap to.
I'm at the 9:00 min mark and sitting on the edge of my seat in happiness!! I hope you guys explain the background on this beautiful barn find. I need to know why Jason waited 6yrs just to get his hands on the car!!!
Haha the family wouldn't let Jason on the property until they were ready to sell. He was chomping at the bit to get to see it though all those years!
My first car was a 1938 Ford Coope I worked all Summer baby sitting so I could buy it for 70 Dollars. My best friend nd i shared that car all through High School.
That's awesome!!
The front fenders were beat to hell, but overall (minus the glass), that puppy is in great shape. The grill has to be un-ubtanium; same with the rear tail light assemblies, but all-in-all, great, great find.
Thanks man!
You have an amazing car too!!!
Thanks man!
Yessir! A beauty.
Thanks!
Some people have all the luck wish I could find a beauty like that.
Keep looking!!
Man I'd love to have that car!
It's pretty killer!
I'd love to see you guys restore this back to original.
We're working on it!
That's a hell of a find. I'd do that patina clear coat on it, straighten the panels that need it, make it run and keep it like it is. Maybe a 2 inch drop? And it's reasons like this I bought myself a "No Ramp" trailer that lays basically flat on the ground so the car just rolls right on. Made life so much easier.
Yep exactly! That was Mikes trailer, I have a Maxx-D T6X that lays the tail end right on the ground! Love that thing!
Black and white was a popular combination in the 50s
yep!
Thanks, and I am 85 years old. all good, 4.10.2024 k
Awesome!!
Hermoso auto!!! Saludos desde Argentina
Gracias!
Very nice
Thank you!
Cool nice builder.iam starting to get into doing restorations on classic chevys.
Right on! I like Chevys too!
Just found your channel and Subscribed. Very nice job
Thank you very much!
She is badass !!
LOL!
That is a sweet looking car. All souped up it'd sell for a mint!
Yea probably would!
Wow what a find and the story about it?
Did you happen to get that old bike?
Nope she said some of the other family members wanted them. They were some old skip-tooths though!
All I can say is the Lady's husband had excellent taste. ❤
Lol! Yep!!
I hear 80% of Fords made are still on the road, only 20% made it home. Well at least this one did.😁
Yep and all them old Chevys are getting crushed!
"You can paint the car any color you like, as long as it's black."
That's the best color!
My grandfather had a 35 Ford sedan. Rode in it many times. He also parked his away in the mid 1950's. Had that same mystery paint - blue? black?
That's awesome... yep this one was black!
What an awesome find. I'm really surprised that the barn didn't collapse on y'all when y'all were taking the wall loose to get the car out, but I'm glad it didn't. The only gripe I have is that you didn't show us the engine. Are there going to be any future videos featuring this car? Like perhaps a will it run?
The wall we removed wasn't structural so that helped... Not sure why I didn't show the motor but it was complete and all original. Yes we will be doing a WIR video on it!
Is it a v8 engine?
@@Joseph-dx1io Did they put anything but a V-8 after the model A - okay, at least up until, what, 1941?
Great find, hurts my head watching a bunch of guys winching it up on the trailer !
How else were we supposed to get it on the trailer?
@@chaddilacdesigns a v- chain or strap pulling from both sides would pull straight. You got it up there so your good ! It just looked like a big mental challenge for an easy job.
Bad ass car! DON'T PAINT IT!!! Just seal the surface, love it!?😊
We're just gonna preserve it!
Nice care
Thanks a lot
Awesome
Thanks for watching!
Sweet ..
Thanks for watching!
What a cool find! Such a beautiful style. Car companies seem to make copies of each others models today. With electrics forced upon us one would think style would be more important than ever? Recently I viewed a Volvo P-1800 from Sweden that was made all electric. Perhaps Ford should look at the magnificent style of their previous, pre computer age, cars and build some cars that are interesting looking?
Thanks!
Bought a 36 in 65 for 100 bucks. Engine blown up , all was there. Kept it till about 78. Sold it to. Start my business. Lots of fun. Very hard to find parts back then. Swiped parts off Wrecked rounde rounder for hydro brakes.
That's awesome! I have a 1934 Ford Coupe that was a rounder in my town in the 60s, I've built it back up and drive it from time to time!
