Where did all the history buffs go to? If it wasn’t for Mr. Galamb we wouldn’t have our T’s in its mechanical abilities. Google it.

Mr. Seress your article in the recent Vintage Ford regarding Joseph Galamb was exceptional and a great read. Thank you! Hemmings Classic Car also put out a one page article on Galamb in their November 2017 issue with a sub-title of "Who Designed the Model T?" A short article but some excellent historical context. Thanks again.

That was the only article in the magazine worth reading!
