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.

Re: Jozsef Galamb,R.I.P.
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.
