For no particular reason I would like to know where it went after the BJ auction. Would love to see it up close... Bill

I grew up about a block from Florida Southern College in Lakeland, Florida. The Industrial Arts department was on McDonald St., on my side of the campus (north side). I was over there all the time because guys were working on their cars there. Inside was an identical 1940 Ford cut-a-way chassis with lots of chrome and painted in kind of a metallic bronze/gold. Years later, I saw that cut-a-way under a lean-to shed out on the west side of Lakeland, on Wabash Ave. I moved away shortly thereafter and never saw it again......

There is one on display at Memory Lane Museum in Mooresville North Carolina.
10$ admission and well worth it.
Check it out.

The Lemay Family Collection in Spanaway,Wa has a 1935-36 cutaway frame which has been completely restored by volunteers. Cutaway frames were used for instruction and displays throughout the world. There must be many around the United States.

Back in the 70s a friend of mine in Columbus Georgia had one of those that he acquired from a trade school. He wound up trading it off. Such a neat piece but it takes up a lot of space.
