Very interesting. The way it shows not just the development and production of the car, but the bits of American life. I have now got to spend another hour to watch the next one in the series. Ford and the American Dream! It beats watching television.

A very interesting clip. There were several things that stood out. How about that roof being the radio Ariel.?

We had the V8 Pilot. An impressive car; even if a thirsty one.!

It is very interesting.

I do particularly like the late 30's V8's sold in the UK. The model 68 and 78 are very nice looking cars.

They are. They are also incredibly tough. Shame so many ended up the way they did.
