The Ford Barn

Found this tag on a slant window we just bought...it says the engine was reconditioned by an "authorized Ford dealer". The engine does have the correct number stamped on it, but you can tell it is not factory stamping. I'm sure there are many of these out there, just the first one we have seen.

I had a brass tag on a B motor from an authorized rebuilder in Minneapolis.

Yo, Michael,
Vermin's engine has been "sleeping" since '87 with a beautiful BRASS tag from a local rebuilder. Tag has date, crank sizes, & bore size. Someone didn't do their decimals right, bore says .010" it is in fact .100" Engine is shiny & perfect inside, looks as if it was built & assembled YESTERDAY. Runs BEAUTIFUL. I have NO documented history on it, but have lots of pics. Bill W.
