A side note on Brookville business practices ...

I was at the Brookville booth @ the NSRA Nationals in Louisville this year ( 2007 ) and Ray ... the owner of Brookville ... was making a sales pitch to a fellow about the 32 Ford 3W body. He said that a fellow who had a deposit down ( 5 grand ) was #141 on the waiting list had gotten Cancer, had 6 months to live and Brookville had just gave him his deposit back ... I was impressed ... I thought that was real good of them

Then Ray offered the new guy ... the #141 slot ... if he put down a 5 grand deposit that day

I think that stinks to high heaven ... all the deposits after #141 should have moved up one spot and the new guy start at the rear of the line IMHO.

I know I would be very UPSET ... if I was waiting for a 32 3W from Brookville and they moved a new buyer up ahead of my deposit.

Thankfully ... I have a original 32 Ford roadster and a original 32 Ford 3W coupe ... and do not NEED ANY of Brookvilles products.
