Default pics of early fords at historic or unique places

Let's see those pictures of your early fords out front off some neat historic places or landmarks! I bet some of you Barner's overseas have some cool shots to share!

Here's a photo of our '39 CS in front of Martha Berry's house, on the grounds of Berry College in Rome, Ga. Martha Berry founded the College, she was a good friend of Henry Ford, he had a number of buildings on the campus built and also provided Ford tractors and cars for the schools use.

Heres one in front of Oregons oldest speed shop. I had to go see it after reading about it in Hot Rod (Jan 09). What a great story and great guy to talk with. Been there since he opened it in 1950. Still working there today!

Heres another one parked next to one of the Blue Angels.
