"I
will build a motor car for the great multitude. It will be large enough for the
family, but small enough for the individual to run and care for. It will be constructed
of the best materials, by the best men to be hired, after the simplest designs
that modern engineering can devise. But it will be so low in price that no man
making a good salary will be unable to own -- and enjoy with his family the blessings
of hours of pleasure in God's great open spaces." Henry
Ford, 1907 |
Henry
Ford was the American
founder of the Ford Motor Company
and father of
modern assembly
lines used in mass production.
His introduction of the
Model T
automobile revolutionized
transportation and
American industry.

Drive your T or your A or Chevy or modern if you
don’t have a T and bring your favorite lawn chair. Plan to spend the evening showing
off your pride and joy and visiting with other car enthusiasts who come out on
a Saturday night. Anything could show up. See you there! Let’s show everyone what
a Model T is supposed to look like. Come around to the back side behind the fence.
We are hoping to get there early enough to claim the first row for our club’s
Ts under the covering. If you come modern please park over to the side, then bring
your chair on over and join us with the Ts. | | COMING

in the Park ... June 3rd ... Cooper Aerobics Center
The show begins at
11 and prizes are announced at 3:30. Approximately 200 cars of all makes and models
and vintages will be on display. The Cooper Aerobics Center is comprised of 30
lushly landscaped acres with ponds, ducks, flowers, mature trees, it is perhaps
the most ideal setting for a car show imaginable. We group cars by country and
within each country we provide space for car clubs so they can enjoy the afternoon
together. We are definitely a car club-friendly event as we host clubs representing
Austin Healey, Cadillac, Corvette, Ferrari, Jaguar, Mercury Marauder, Oldsmobile,
Porsche, Rolls Royce and Triumph to name a few. We award prizes for pre-1980 and
post-1980 cars with judging accomplished by fellow car owners. Trophies and ribbons
are awarded and our vendor’s award valuable prizes based on their favorite cars.
