I recently inherited a '26 T roadster from my father. He bought it from the original owner in the '30s. Completely restored it in the '60s. I can remember "helping" him when I was just a kid. A lot of great memories.

Jim, are you the same who graduated from CHS in '63 or '64, owned a model A daily driver, and attended Columbus College? Grover (Skipper) Barfield
