Keith Townsend posted this in the Early Ford jack revisited thread:



The top section about the tops wasn't what he was referring to but when I read it, it made me think, Wow Feb of 1912 and Ford was getting rid of the 1911 torpedo parts already! surely the tops that were a year old were not going bad in great numbers already were they?
Those parts would be needed a little later in the inventory would be my thought.
Am I missing something that was going on at the time?
I wonder if Luke would know?
Also what is the Joey-Mell that is included on the page?

Herb

Herb-
And the tops come with side curtains, too!

Someone asked about the Joey-Mell a while back, but I can't find it now...

Art,

The ad says "guaranteed forever". As my 90 year old father says, "forever is a long time".

I'd love to have one. There is a Stanley on the New London to New Brighton tour every year with a locomotive whistle and it sounds great. I think it would sound great on our "K".
