G'day Rob,
Thanks for posting the link once again.
I watched the introduction and will get around to watching the whole presentation when time permits.
Very much appreciate you interest in the pre T era.
Best regards, John Page, Australia.

Re: Trent Boggess Early Ford Database presentation
G'day Rob,
Finally had time to catch up with the presentation.
Great hearing the background information regarding these records.
I have a copy of Carlton Pate's book and the DVD from the time when the book was first released for sale in 2008.
It will be good to go through the book and DVD now with the added knowledge that I will now probably understand a little better.
Thanks once again Rob for allowing us the chance to sit in on the session.
Best regards, John Page, Australia.

Re: Trent Boggess Early Ford Database presentation
Great presentation. Thank you Trent.
And Thank you Rob for making it happen.
We had a mini tornado here last Wednesday and I had no power to attend the meeting.
Now I am caught up and look forward to the next one. I could've driven to Jerry Van's
but I wasn't invited.

We have standards to uphold.
