Museum List
This is a project started by some of the guys over at the MTFCA site, and I've adopted the project.
What we are doing is compiling a list of all museums that have at least one Model A, T or other old Ford. Be it a small county historical society or a large strictly automotive museum I'll include it on the list. Take a look at the main page on my site in the left sidebar and if you know of one that's not listed let me know. If you'd like a copy of the list for your site, PM me with your email address and I'll send you one. www.vintagefordfacts.blogspot.com |

Re: Museum List
It won't be built for a while yet, but MAFFI is currently raising funds to build a Model A museum. Details can be found here: http://www.maffi.org/index.htm
They are raffling off a 30 Tudor Model A as part of their efforts to raise money to build the museum. Rest assured that I will have my name in that hat several times! http://www.maffi.org/My_Homepage_Files/Page10.html

Also the museum has a very large collection of documentation blueprints and sales information. The Peterson museum in LA is also excellent. Many are celebrity cars and famous hot rods. I saw Billy Gibbons himself and four of his famous customs cars. |
