Default 100 Years of Ford Australia history being destroyed

Hi All

Mountains of old documents, photos, designs, parts blueprints, and basically all the old history of Ford Australia are rotting away in a normal unprotected warehouse due to Ford head office politics.

https://www.drive.com.au/news/ford-a...till-in-limbo/

Ford USA want to send these to Detroit to be digitised and stored and blaming the Aust Government for stopping the export.

Most of these items are very old and wouldn't survive the journey to the US. They could easily be digitised and protected/stored here. Ford is penny pinching.

Might be good for us all to contact Ford to try to get these digitised and kept before its too late!
