The Ford Barn

I'm clearing out stuff prior to moving next spring. Forgot I have about 30 of these and the projector. Mostly from the 1950's. Everything from new care intorductions to technical stuff like the Loadmatic distributor. Anyone ever seen these? Any Idea what they're worth or where to sell them. Breaking it up and selling on EBay would probably bring the most but I hate to break it up and would like them to go to a collector who would appreciate them.

Possibly advertise in HEMMINGS. It will reach the correct audience there.

The Early Ford V8 Foundation Museum would love to have something like this in their great museum. Give them a call. http://www.fordv8foundation.org/

I agree breaking up the collection would be terrible, but if you don't know it's true value / what to ask, auctioning it off would be the easiest.

If it were mine, I'd donate it to a local car museum like Mercman suggests. I can see them digitizing it and running it in a loop at their Ford display. They may even include a dedication plaque to slumlord44.
