Default Strangest place you've found the Ford script

Over the years I've seen the Ford script on all kinds of parts such as rear axle keys, spark plug connectors, etc. Last week I was cleaning up an old shadowbox that my Dad made me back in the early 70's and noticed this front spindle nut with the script. I don't ever recall seeing another one of these before now.

Where's the most unusual place you've found a Ford script stamped?

I don't know about being the strangest, but this is the smallest place I have seen a script. Driveshaft roller bearing.

Here's another one I found recently on the reverse idler shaft from an early 28 transmission I'm assembling. Unfortunately the cluster gear shaft didn't have a matching script, although it wasn't useable anyway.



Definitely not as cool as the cookies above!

Saddly, I think if you looked hard enough there would be scripts in places you just do not want to see.

I have a brass clad head gasket that has the Ford script. Taken out of a low mileage engine.

I found the Ford script on these spring clips, that I found in a Ford garage, many years ago.

I have the tip of a quill pen that has a Ford script. I assume the drafting dept in Dearborn bought hundreds of them to their specs.
