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.

Don't know if this is acceptable but I found it interesting, hope I'm capable of this kind of activity if/when I reach 84.

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!

Heritage Plantation has an antique auto museum as one of its several varied museums. It is in Sandwich, Massachusetts and currently has on exhibit a Model A Coupe and a DeLuxe Phaeton. They display about 40-50 cars mostly pre WWII manufacture.

The Nethercutt museum is fantastic. Located about ten miles north of LA the museum is free admission and has over 250 1st class cars. 80 % of the cars are between 1906 and 1941 and represent many of the finest original cars from the US and Europe.

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.
