In 1964 and 1965 I worked at Habich Ford in Blue Island Il. On the DO Program. Half day at School and Half Day at work. Only hated school for 4 hours a day. Any it was Slave Labor. But I noticed that many customers would rebuild the engines in their 5 or 6 year old Fords. I noticed that ususally a year or so later that they would buy a Ford. Good opportunity to get a decent used up car.
