In 1986, Benny T. Bootle, past President of the Antique Automobile Club of America (AACA), and a mechanical engineering graduate of The University of South Carolina in 1953, donated his 40 Ford Sedan Delivery to the University. His request was that, when he passed away, the historic car be displayed and then sold, with the proceeds to be added to the endowment of the Professor Frank B. Herty Scholarship Fund.
Mr. Bootle passed away in 1996 and the car was moved to the Swearingen Building of the College of Engineering and Computing. The Car was displayed in the college, and Pulliam Ford in Columbia, SC, for several years. |

How do you move these beauties to and from show venues?
