The Ford line of cars was updated in 1937 with one major change — the introduction of an entry-level 136 cu in (2.23 L) V8 in addition to the popular 221 cu in (3.62 L) flathead V8. The model was a refresh of its predecessor, the Model 48 which in turn had been based on the earlier Model 40A. In 1937 the standard cost was $ 850, the Ford Line bore several model numbers during this period, each related to their respective HP numbers. In 1937, 85 HP cars were known as Model 78 while 60 HP cars were known as Model 74. This changed to Model 81A and 82A respectively in 1938, and Models 91A and 92A in 1939.
As was the way at Ford the model was updated with new styling tweaks each year. For the 1940 model year a high flat-topped hood dominated the front look of the 1940 model, as the grille spread out to reach the fenders. In order to differentiate the Deluxe from the Standard model, in the Deluxe line the headlights were pushed wider still. The standard Ford inherited the grille of the 1939 model with blackout on each side of a heavy chrome center; heavier headlight surrounds serve as another major differentiator from the 1939. 1940 was the last year of the 1937 design, sealed beam head lights were one of the few changes

A dig coordinated by Dr Stephen Sherlock in Loftus, towards the Yorkshire coast - south of Middlesborough, has recently uncovered Neolithic kilns for the reduction of salt brine into salt. The date of 5,750ybp is repeated in national press (31st March 2021) which projected it as the oldest salt making speciality site in Europe. It is certainly the oldest I know in the UK and seeing speciality industries within the Neolithic places the production point aside speciality mines, quarries and the specialist landscape parcels so typical of early agriculture. The kilns suggest a sense of source and distribution, and thus a sense of greater stable society. Shallow clay lined pools closer to the sea were thought to have helped to convert the sea water into a brine which was further reduced in the Loftus kilns. I would obviously categorise these shallow pools as a manifestation of 'warm water forms', and those reading my texts will know that I have speculated them in diverse situations from carved south facing monolithic stone to the indents on top of leather-frame tents; ground-level 'shaped' tarps' and shallow pools closer to the coast. I speculate many uses for 'warm water forms' including reduction of 'perfumes', salt concentration, softening of fibres, tinting with natural dyes, cleaning, epicurean reflection and so on; with the understanding that some loci may only have attached to one or two functions. Here, a shallow man-made pool does not equate to salt brine production, and a shallow pool may have been for salt brine production - with the important issue being that sun-heated water was made to work, and that shallow pools had a Neolithic/Chalcolithic significance and spirit of applied human invention. A technological zeitgeist in the way that the conceptions of 'leverage' had occupied the Palaeolithic via propulser, hammers, axes, 'tension levers' (see this Photostream for explanations) and certainly wooden digging bars (Barre à mine) and even large scale counterweighted 'lifters' of the type visible on the above image.
The above shot is of a site in the southern Basque region where rivers pass over rock salt and taste of the sea without ever coming close. The site is said to have been occupied for production for 6500 years, which would make it close to the date in Loftus - indeed 1000 years older.
Salt was important to the Neolithic as strong and fertile animals need it. If man wanted to concentrate animal numbers into a space (a definition of agriculture) then additional salt could increase yields. Today a white cube can be seen in cow fields - a salt lick, and the logic is that the first 'salt lick' was a neolithic insight.
