A little local Ford history...

Simmons Motor Company later sold to Capper Ford, but they didn't keep a location in Marengo. They are at the neighboring town, Williamsburg, where they had been for years.

I like history like that. Our local Ford dealer, 36 miles away, started in Baker, Montana in the early 50's as Teepee Motors, and is still run by the same family(Heberle Ford). They are good people to deal with.

Cool info.

Simmons Motor Co would have been there for over 80 years... They sold sometime in the 90's.
