This one on the right?
When the time comes, I'll be buying all kinds of stuff from you!!
I'm in the process of putting up a building where I can concentrate on the rebuild. When that finally gets done, I'll be ready to roll!
(Which will be winter again - naturally)
Thanks for all your support!!

I might add that you all probably have wooden folding rulers, for this linemen work they have fiberglass folding rulers for better insulation value/stronger.Well wood probably breaks easier.This is for GP

I'm proud to be in the old timer's club that cherish their folding rules. You youngsters can have your recoil tape measures; you'll never achieve our level of precision.

Just received a response from the Ford Archives. Naturally, this stupid COVID thing prohibits me from going over there and looking at things (basement of World Headquarters in Dearborn) - hopefully that day will eventually arrive!
The part drawings must be some where? Maybe stored in the Highland Park Plant itself !?!! The company has all kinds of crap stored there.
I was out there quite a while ago, but not sure if anything is stored there now. (That was 20+ years ago)
I'll have to ask around.
No luck on the trip to the Benson Ford Library, but (hopefully) that day will come too!
