Does anyone have a good source of dealership-type stuff like Autolite cabinets, lighted Ford signs or any other goodies that will make my garage look like a Ford garage?------------------

Steve, believe it or not, I've found most of the Ford stuff in my garage at flea markets and swap meets. Tomorrow is the Nashville AACA swap meet, one day event and you would be surprised what is there. The first weekend in March is the Louisville swap meet at the state fair grounds. Prices aren't as high as Carlisle. I'm sure Maine is about as desolate as Kentucky, but the little roadside antique shops have a bunch of stuff.Mike IP: 63.10.71.153 |

Have you tried eBay? Sometimes I've seen those metal signs going on there for decent prices. Just a thought.------------------

What I'd really like to find is an Autolite cabinet. When I worked at the buick dealership we had a Delco tune up cabinet that held spark plugs, wires, caps, point sets {dating myself, huh?} and other stuff.Perfect size for small parts and hardware. ------------------
