Dear friends, My name is Nikollas and I live in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Most of all, I'm a owner and enthusiast of the 1951 Ford. The thing is, I would like to pay a humble homage to the 60th anniversary of the '51 Ford, witch is in 2011, in my blogs, one of them is dedicated to it, although it has not been updated for quite some time. Here in Brazil those shoebox Fords were very popular, but today they are not among the favorite cars for young collectors. We seems to have the same problem here as I read once in one of your bulletins. So, the idea is to keep the flame burning, and that's a good chance. I have collected trough the years some documents and books about the Shoebox Ford history. Not much, even because there's not much to be read. At least where I can buy. Some books still available are great, but the best part of my research was at the Ford Archives. The Henry Ford is not available trough the web, so I keept it for someday in the future. So, as part of my research and the opportunity to make a collection of pictures and facts in that year, I dare to ask you for some help. Like magazines articles, pictures and so. I do not intend to pretend to be Mr. Cecil Goff or Mike McCarville! No way! But there's always some history to be told. And our beloved automobile sure deserve my best. My blog about the Shoebox is here: www.shoeboxford.wordpress.com and there's another one here, with some pictures: www.carrosantigos.wordpress.com Any tip, document or help sure will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help. My best regards, Nikollas Ramos Rio de Janeiro - Brazil
