Working on my Dodge and came across this "ok" mark. Makes me wonder about the worker that signed off on this phase of assembly so long ago.

I found "Cam" written with the glue they used to stick the insulation to the roof when I was sandblasting the underside of the roof last summer.

A signed OK is so much more "personal" than just an "Inspected by #3" tag found in a new pkg of Fruit of the Looms.:D

Well maybe it's better if your Fruit of the Looms were inspected by #3. Not sure i want to know who's been inspecting my shorts! :D

Neat thread, just goes to show, many of us, are also interested in the "human side" of those who built our cars, so many years ago.

It still blows my mind, when I think that my cars survived the late 40s, all the 50s,60s,70s,80s,90s, and 2000-2011, amazing isn't it. I sure wich I knwo who bought my car new, and from what dealer, but there are no build and ship records for Canadian Chryslers....

The most amazing story I've heard about writing in the car was on an IHC group. Someone had a pickup from I think 1979 or whenever the last year they manufactured them. Fastward a few decades and he goes to remove the seat to work on the truck. Behind the seat were signatures of all the employees who built his truck saying good bye to their jobs and sending the truck out into the world. He figured it must have been one of the last ones down the assembly line if not the very last.
