And just think, we sold that car company to the Italians.

How many rebuilds during the making of the advert? My dad ran a wrecking
yard in Nebraska in the 1930's. I commented one time about a model T
seemed to keep running. He said, they never went more than 25,000 miles in
a lifetime. You always kept a strip of leather in the toolbox to replace a
poured Babbitt bearing when it went out any old time. If you did not have
the leather, you could use a piece of your belt or the tongue for a shoe.
They turned over all the time. Heavy metal, the did not bend, but the
passengers did. They were better than horses, but not by much.
