  3. Bob,

    How do we contact the store? They online at all? (I'm guessing not).

    My brother's in LA at the moment (for the next week) and I've been looking for the upper decklid panel for my 27T roadster.....if they've got one, I might be able to get my bro to pick it up for me.
     
  4. Great pics Bob!! Thanks for takin' the time..... Another fine example of why southern Cali has the rep it does for quality stuff...and quantity. People like to argue it, but the proof is in the pictures! Just gander at the Moon get together...another fine example. Keep 'em comin' Bob...

    Like anything electronic... you only end up using about 30% of it's functions!
     
  11. All I heard was fantastic things about him,but he was so busy that I didn't get to actually meet him. I did see him running around though...I'm gonna go by soon and spend some time in that store,without all the crap going on around. Thanks,OC...

    I'd like to second what OC Fab has to say about Bill and his son,
    I know Bill a little better, but both are First Class, genuinely nice
    people and great to do business with as well.

    Oh by the way, I want that flattie powered 29 coupe in Bob's pics.

    Nice pics as always Bob.

    Bill and his son are both great people who know their Fords...

    if you are a Ford guy or love vintage speed parts it is worth the trip no matter where you live on this earth....
     
  23. i love that place i spent most of the show there talking having a few beers and drooling at all the parts.

    If Bill or michale don't know a part, it's beacuse FORD did not make it! Those two are the best! Ford and Edsel!

    Nice pics Bob! I also spent alot of time out back.
    The Early Ford Store is a must see stop. My shop is about 1/2 mile from there.
    I love to watch a 1st timer walk through the store & look up. Mouth always seems to be open in awe!:D
    It's like a Ford candy store- only better.
