V8Coopman FOR EXAMPLE check out this distributor and drive unit!!! OH "AND" this is only 1/2 the battle AS there is a set of bronze beveled drive gears at the bottom.......We contacted 4 different specialty gear makers.......NONE were interested in making a set for us from our worn set!!! I finally got a set......current replacement wait time for the next batch to arrive from Sweden is at least a year!!! Last edited by rockfla; 09-15-2021 at 11:56 AM. |

Re: Ford Motor Co during the war.
WOW!
Thank you for sharing 38Bill. I had no idea Ford built so much for the military during the war. Very interesting for sure. |

Re: Ford Motor Co during the war.
I remember my dad talking about grinding the gears on the Gun Tower trucks that he learned to drive in the Canadian artillery. Some were Ford, some GM.

Re: Ford Motor Co during the war.
I assume that some of these were Ford designed and some were designed by others and built by Ford. Still a remarkable achievement and worth remembering and commemorating.
