Re: \"Tool Chits\"
Are there any tool checks known for the Twin Cities assembly plant? I would like to get my hands on one of those since that is where my car was produced.

Re: \"Tool Chits\"
When I started at the Rouge Plant in 1965 I was issued 6 tool checks with the same number as My badge. When you took a tool from the crib you left a check and got it back upon its return. Different buildings Had different letters as there were twelve plants in the Rouge. Dave

Re: \"Tool Chits\"
Yes, there are Twin Cities Ford Assembly Plant and multiple Iron Mountain tool tags.
The Iron Mountain ones occasionally show up on eBay. The Twin Cities -- you have to be in the right place at the right time to find those. |

Re: \"Tool Chits\"
I have collected a number of both badges & tool chits that are unstamped. They are rarer but not impossible to find.

Re: \"Tool Chits\"
Very cool, I have a Twin City badge as well. I'm a badge collector myself. Love this stuff, if you have any cool extras, let me know.
