    Jay Leno likes my Open Engine concept!

    Henry Ford Old Car Festival

    My wife and I went to the old car show in 2010. It was our first time in Dearborn, and we ended up spending 3 days! The first day we toured the Rouge factory in the morning, and then went through the Henry Ford Museum. The following day, we spent the entire day going through Greenfield Village...
