When we did our Brown County Drive in Indiana a couple of years ago, we met several old Model A's. Car people as a whole are "happy" people.

There were a few Model T's and Model A's at Cruisin' the Coast this year. They do seem to be a happy bunch.

Good Model A drivers aren't all that expensive, either. Hmmmm.

They had an antique car meet in Chattanooga back in the summer. There must have been 200+ in the aquarium parking lot downtown. Some of the makes and models I'd never seen or heard of before.

If you don't frequent the Odds and Ends thread, I found these car owners!

Google is your friend. I was looking around last night and found info/ email address for a Model T car club and it was the group that was out Sunday! I have shared one of the pictures I took which will be forwarded to the owner and will share more pictures with them. Going to try some edits first to get rid of some of the distracting stuff.

They know I'm not a pro, but car people do appreciate pics of their car, especially when they are free!

My uncle had a used car lot after WWII and he told me he used to buy Model As (it could have been Model Ts, whichever one was more numerous) and pay five dollars for them. He'd resell them for 7.50
Hard to comprehend, but I asked him myself if that were true and he confirmed it.
