If you are lucky the old fellow that collected the cars may be there and give you a personal tour. I did both Studebaker and Hudson the same day. Nice place to stay overnight too.
We appreciate your suggestion, and it is already on our agenda. Tonight (Tuesday) we are in Auburn, IN and will tour the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Museum tomorrow. We will stay in Auburn again tomorrow night, and will drive to the Hudson Museum in Shipshewana Thursday morning and get there when it opens at 10:00. Maybe we will find some vehicles we can pass, instead of having everyone pass us! After Shipshewana, we will drive to my sister's home in Hastings Michigan, about 20 miles from the Model A Museum. Friday we will tour the other car museums at Gilmore, and Saturday we will be at Gilmore for the Model A gathering. From there, we will head home to Denver.
