Actually that never happened. The plan was to ship it over where is could be catalogued and preserved in an air conditioned environment, and made available for researchers etc. What actually happened was that Ford North America decided they didn't have the resource to catalogue it and wouldn't accept boxes of unsorted papers. Ford Australia had no resource to sort it. The Ford Museum had no resource to catalogue it either. Last I heard it was all piled up rotting away in the underground of the old museum in Geelong. Very sad.
