Default Re: Old Parts Department photo

I don't have any photos but have memories. I bought my first car a 35 Ford coupe for $7.50 in 1948. The engine smoked bad and I was rebuilding the engine with instructions from the Ford mechanics at the local dealership Albertini Ford in Pa. I would walk about 2 miles through the cornfield and get info and parts, they also lent me tools like a spline shaft to align the clutch plate. One day the parts guy ED Broffy(not sure of spelling) said here kid take this home and hang it up in your garage it's been sitting around here for years. It was a brand new Ford oval sign about 2 feet long from I guess the 30's. I hung it in the garage and still have it in my current garage in Pa. I guess I should print the history of it and attach it to the sign. G.M.
