    Hello,

    One of the nicest complete old Ford trucks seen in a long time. the body was pristine, the chrome good and the glass was as clear as the day.

    This 1962 Ford truck was sitting in front of one of the coolest shops in this industrial area of this coastal city. We had gone there many times to get some metal shapes and sizes of all kinds. It is one of the best fabrication places, with all kinds of applications. We needed a perforated sheet to replace a solid door on our old office computer cabinet. I had already cut out the back panel for air circulation, but the big box CPU was still running hot.

    This metal shop had just the perfect perforated metal sheet to replace the front of the door and that would be perfect for flow through air to cool off the large CPU box. Yes, there were fans built in and I added a couple of plug in external fans, but computing for hours gets warm to hot.

    Not all art is meant to be driven, there are several examples on the HAMB that don't even run. Some art is meant to hang in the Louvre. That would be right at home there. Wow!
