Vintage Ford Article on early tools.
Many years ago, I wrote an article with photos of tools I have that were used in 1913. I can't remember what year that article was, or the issue of the Vintage Ford. I think Bruce McCalley was still editor then. Can anyone help me identify this for me?

Re: Vintage Ford Article on early tools.
About once a decade, the Vintage Ford publish a list of articles that were in it. You might check there.
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas!

Looks like The caption under a picture of this wrench in the 1998 "Vintage Ford" article by Larry Smith entitled "The Ford Tools of 1912 and 1913" stares:Original Smith wrote: ↑Mon Mar 28, 2022 11:01 amMany years ago, I wrote an article with photos of tools I have that were used in 1913.

The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.
