Inherited From My Father- Original Owner on 2040-cars
Crescent City, California, United States
|
My dad spent most of the 1970's restoring this 1917 Model T Roadster. HIS DREAM WAS TO TAKE HER TO HARRAH'S (Reno) AND WIN 1ST PLACE. I have no doubt he would have done exactly THAT. Unfortunately he died in 1982 and never saw her completed. He was a perfectionist, indeed, and in every endeavor.
My father saved every letter (and every receipt for every part he purchased from all over the country and a little address book of all his "T" friends and contacts. I still have everything. I also have a huge box of tools made specific for the model "T" and many books published during her era for repair, etc. I think the "T" is about 95 percent original. It even has the little oil can that mounts under the hood. My husband and I bought the new top and a new coil within the last ten years or so. The "T" has a title which is, and has always been, in my name only. Thank you Daddy! BTW: "Betsy" is her nickname and she has NEVER taken less than 1st Place. |

Mulally will stay close to Ford after he steps down, plans to advise Fields [w/video]
Fri, 27 Jun 2014Ford CEO Alan Mulally has less than a week left in his role of leading the Blue Oval before he hands off duties to Mark Fields on July 1. It doesn't look like Mulally is going to be shuffling off into his retirement anytime soon, though. The 68-year-old is being rather secretive about his next move, but he tells Bloomberg in a recent interview that he plans to stay close to Ford. Also, if Fields wants to ask for any advice, Mulally is happy to help.
Mulally took over at Ford in 2006 and led the company through a seriously rough patch in the auto industry. According to Bloomberg, he became famous or his Thursday meetings where executives were forced to deal with any problems before they could leave. Since announcing his retirement from Ford in May, Mulally has been insuring a smooth transition of power by traveling the world to all of company's major locations and saying goodbye to employees and dealers.
In terms of the future at Ford, Mulally doesn't predict any big changes in management style because the rest of the executive team is staying in place. He believes that Fields is going to maintain the processes already in place to keep things going. After all, it seems to be working. The company is predicting a return to profitability in Europe next year and is opening 88 new dealers in China. If the business could get its recalls under control, things could get even better.
