Saturday September 18th was the Model A Day at the Gilmore Museum in Hickory Corners, Michigan. Don and Judy, and Kristin and Grier were on hand to experience this event. It is a wonderful event and by my estimation about 150 Model A cars came. There was also a Model A parts swap area too. Below is a picture that Judy took of our Club's Commemorative brick we purchased. Followed by two pictures I took of the brick installed.
Our brick is on the top row third from the right side.
The following pictures are just a few that I took on the grounds showing the Fire Trucks and then some of the Model A's
The following are a few pictures inside the Model A Ford Museum. The first one is of a very interesting custom Model A that I believe was probably used for weddings. Not really practical, but neat to look at.
The next two pictures are of the 1931 66A Deluxe Pickup Truck. Only 293 of these were made with only about 30 known to exist today and 10 of which are restored (according to an ad I saw).In the afternoon Wayne Carini from Discovery Channels "Chasing Classic Cars" gave a little talk. It was enjoyable to listen to him and to learn that his Dad was the inspiration for creating the Model A Restoration Club (MARC) along with another person. They started it all!
Finally Mike Morton hosted a "mini-tune-up day" at his place where Randal, Mike and Larry did a little maintenance of their cars. Looked like fun!
