I am pretty sure that these are "Ford" boys. This brought a smile to my face, I hope it does to yours.

I wish I still worked in the machine shop my Dad and I had back in the early 70's - Not quite as old equipment as there is in that shop. One place that I go for some machine work is a one man operation with almost all belt driven machines

I saw it on the HAMB, I think. I envy those guys. No computers, just make it work. I wish all of life could be like some times. Reminds me of my dad's service station back in the early '70s.
