Rare Very Early 28 Abell starter drive Conversation Piece

Many of you have probably heard about the early 28 Abell starter drive but how many have seen this item. This is the an Abell starter drive, used on the very early Model As. I do not believe this drive is complete, I think there are a couple of springs and a spacer missing. The Ford Service Bulletins contain a drawing and some service information. I recently rediscovered this part in my collection of stuff I will never use. All my 28s had the 1/2" starter drive but with the later style bendix. It is an interesting item, if someone would need it for their early 28 project I may consider letting it go.
