    Thanks miked, just fleabay fees.

    Also got two suit cases full of old children's books from the 1930's, plus some sterling silver and an old ignition system from a 1928 Chevy.



    The sterling was a first for me, most of the old stuff the homesteaders had was silver plate, so I'm rather pleased with this find.

    On the ignition system you will note that the hot lead is encased inside a secure wire coil which attached firmly to the firewall, this was supposed to deter theft of your automobile while you were in the pub boozing it up.

    The more I got thinking about that old Model T truck they must have driven it into the garage, it would be impossible to tow with that worm gear differential.
