Here is the only picture I was able to find on my phone, somehow the rest got deleted, good thing my wife took a few with her digital camera, unfortunately she didn’t get many of the Fords.

Re: 1941 Ford bumper end pieces

32 v8 video
https://youtu.be/40FpBw8xRw4?si=pmKsh6LfTDYpfy5e
Posted a couple of days ago, some of the footage seems later than 1932.
I did get to see engine no. 1 at the Henry Ford museum about 5 years ago.

Re: Back end of a T-5
