Default Buy Your Wife A Ford
Last night at the club meeting I saw a slide of what was probably a Model A ad. It just said "BUY YOUR WIFE A FORD". Does anyone have this picture or know where I could find one? Thanks

I was hoping to find this as an old magazine ad. I'm not paying $100 for an ebay poster.

The picture is small and has lines in it. Hopefully I'll find a larger picture or the original magazine ad.

Can anyone email me a higher resolution file of this like Bogie's? What I get off the computer here is only about 8k. Something like 800k would be better.

Thanks.

Tom, I'm with you on the Facebook thing. Don't need it, don't want it...!

P.S. but then a few years ago my wife and I told one of our sons we could never justify the purchase of a computer........ HAH.....!

Road Pirates? And you don't all ride Hogs or Rice Burners, doing wheelies and burnouts in nice neighborhoods?

I'd like to see a pic of your patch or coat of arms.
