Old parts
 

I was put on hospice yesterday. I want to give away a Model A bell housing that is clean, painted, and mounted on a chunk of plywood as a wall mount. The cost is, you have to take the other Ford parts too. I think the kids will chuck it all when I croak. Little Dearborn is about twenty miles south of where I live. If you don't need the parts, please give them to Little Dearborn to help him pay the light bill. You must pick up the parts, no shipping. Call late afternoons, pickup in St. Michael MN,
Call 763-276-7477

I am so sorry to hear that. I would take the parts but I am too far away. Maybe adopt a new set of kids that appreciate your collection. Or donate to a local high school auto shop. (Do high schools still have auto shop?)

Sorry to hear that you are in hospice but remember, doctors don’t have all the answers.

A bit of encouragement: about 10 months ago it was announced that President Jimmy Carter had gone into hospice and a couple of days ago he celebrated his 99th birthday and was shown walking around.

Good luck,

David Serrano

Good Plan !!
The Rock-Ford A's Model A Club of Rockford, IL is starting a new relationship with the Clinton, WI High School Industry Technology program. Some of you know that Clinton, WI was the host village this past year for the Annual Model A Day which is always held on the first Sunday of June. The local HS shop students were into the gathering of all of the Model A's and their instructor befriend the RFA's members and a plan emerged.

A Model A rolling chassis has been now donated to the Clinton HS for them to refurbish. Parts and guidance are now being offered as well to these enthusastic students. They are hoping to have it completed to the extent of actually driving a running Model A chassis in their Homecoming Parade this month. These students are now planning to be part of next year's Model A Day in Clinton, WI. Get em while they are young!!!
