Gilmore car museum

Hey ! This is the week-end of the Red Barn Show at Hickory Corners. Hope the weather in lower Michigan is decent for Saturday ! Hope you can make it.........
 
Notice in this photo of LAPD motors...

Love that photo. As a retired LEO who had for a time rode HDs and did traffic enforcement I love to see old photos and old black and white movies, where the cops chase the bad guys with the sirens blaring on their Harleys.
 
Please id the car.

Had my '40 at the Gilmore this weekend. This is one of the coolest places there is. I'm so glad I live within driving distance.

I was there this year. Took a trip from Calif. And the Gimore was on my must see bucket list. Covered 10,000 miles on my trip. Going to show pictures at The V8 meeting. I do not think anyone in the club has been there. Some have not even heard about it. Thanks to the Ford Barn I did.
 
Our group visited the Gilmore Museum after attending the EFV8C/A GNM and Motor Muster at the Greenfield Village, and sure glad we did! It was well worth our time to go see this great Museum. I'll probably go back and visit again after the 2019 CNM in Auburn, IN
 
During the past two years, I was able to drive several Ford Model T cars during the Gilmore's Model T class. Great fun to drive these old cars. I might go again next year for a third time. I have been to the museum several times over the past few years. The best car museum around.

Earlier this year I donated my just-restored 1931 Lincoln sport phaeton to the Lincoln Motor Car Foundation Museum at the Gilmore. I can't think of a better home for it.

Talk about oil spots under Harleys!. We made up a nice black cardboard oil spot at work and put it under a new BMW motorcycle in our parking lot. Owner did a real dance around the bike till he figured it out, then took the 'spot' to his club meeting. Lots of FUN. Newc
 
My dad and I rode in this 1947 Lincoln on the campus.
