I have been to Don's house, and Yes, the display is in the house not the garage! Great work Don. Seeing all the tools in one place is really something.

Default German Model A tools?

Don,

WOW....what a great display and collection of information!

Got any tools for German Model A's?

Here is the grease gun for starters (made by Tecalemite):



I have several wrenches as well. I'm looking for the cylindrical tire gauge, but graduated in kilograms (kg) with the Ford script on the side. Would you happen to have one of those?

Fordially,
Brad in Maryland

Awesome display Don, I want one of those when I grow up. I got just the wall for it too. I like that it is in the house, very cool.

Don,

As a KRW tool nut myself I can really appreciate what it took to do what you have done there. Not only to locate, but to restore and display ... and share them with everyone. St. Louis is hosting the 2014 Marc Membership meet and I am going to do a tool seminar, inclusive of service items that are useful, homemade/available from parts dealers/aftermarket/etc. Also KRW for display and use... and would love to include original tools as well. Would you by chance be attending? Would love to poll on your expertise.

Guys like you make it easy for the rest of us. Thank you for all the hard work you and others like you do for this hobby.

I cannot imagine the trials and tribulations you went through (never mind money) in collecting those tools.

Anybody can do it but few can do it right.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
