Nice.. but... I am surprised to see among these Ford parts a hitler puppet and several swastikas and even an SS dead head logo? Why :?

Are those transfer case knobs, and if so, do they have a "F" on them?

Nice case!!

I've thought about this from time to time. Politically incorrect maybe, but without Hitler, we may not have had WWII in the first place, potentially making our little jeeps not ever exist.

Armin,

Nice looking collection :) I might be able to help you with a set of early Ford footmansloops still with tag
on it, if interested.

Luke, good point on "Uncle Adolf"

Great way to display things, excellent collection. Don't see any problem displaying the other stuff--unless you're a Nazi it's not politically incorrect at all . . . . it's called history . . .
