Back to School

There is a level of respect that should be given to the classic styling. Much like the world greatest Chefs you must perfect the classics before you mess with them. This 36 Ford is a perfect blend of tradition and modern function.

Brass

I’m in the middle of Henry Ford’s Autobiography right now and my affection and appreciation for his products are ever increasing.  I guess the early years were one of growth and wonder but Ford had a vision and part of it was creating a product that people would continue to use. This is actually the front grill of a model T tow truck, a think seeing this old work horse in action a hundred years ago must have been a wonderful delight. I’m sure Ford knew his truck towing the competition was far better marketing than an ad in The New Yorker.
