Curt Gibbs, 1952, GMC Panel Delivery Truck.
James Morinec, 1951, Ford, F1. James bought this truck in 2001 with the intent of using it on weekends for runs to Home Depot. After seven years of research and a lot of time in the garage he knows a lot more about the history of Ford cars and trucks and has gained several useful skills along the way. It's almost fully restored now with the help of his son and several of the club members. James is looking forward to finally brining the truck out of the garage and participating in club events.
Craig Fiebiger, 1966, Ford Mustang.
Larry and Elaine Arrowood, 1956 Buick, Roadmaster Sedan. This is an original car that has been stored for thirty-four years in a car port in Texas. It has factory air, and several accessory options. I purchased it from the second owners who purchased it as a trade-in from the original dealer in 1958 . Solid car, no thru rust and never wrecked. Small rub indentation on upper left front fender. Needs a lot but a jewel in the rough.

Wayne and Connie Senseney, This 1962 Willys Jeep Station Wagon has been in my family since it was new. It has a dealer installed air conditioner that still works. According to the Willys website only 376 were made of this style ( Maverick body style w/ carpeting). It is the only car that my my parents had until 1985. I and my family remember many fine moments together on trips in the Jeep. The car was passed on to me by my father in 1989 with the instructions that it must stay in the family, and it has been promised to my grandson Nichloas Rowlett who's father Jimmy is in our club and takes good care of "Papa".

Tom Tomlinson, 1933, LaSalle 7 passenger sedan. Restored 1997 and modernized to a 1977 Cadillac 425 ci engine with Turbo 400 trans and power brakes and steering from 1977 Cadillac. Front suspension is Chrysler torsion bar and the rear is 9 inch Ford. Other than the modifications to adapt the front suspension, power steering and brakes, the car chassis is 1933 LaSalle. Just 467 7 passenger sedans were built in 1933 and it is estimated that less than 25 survive. The body is still the original one including the wood framing, although the interior upholstery is now leather, with custom dash, power windows, am-fm cassette, cd player along with more modern heat and cooling than was available in 1933.

Tom Tomlinson, This 1957 Cadillac series 62 4 door hardtop was pulled out of a garage in Auburn New York where it had sat for 30 years, in 1999. The mileage was approximately 42,800. It was subjected to a frame up restoration to stock with the exception of paint. Although the original color, it now sports ghost flames and really looks great under the lights at night. The car now has close to 52,000 miles and still drives as new. The interior is totally original except for the dash pad, rear package shelf, headliner and carpet. Despite its snow belt heritage, it was never driven in snow, ice or rain and had little rust. It was strictly a Sunday driver and is rumored to have been a gift to the first owners from Elvis.
Tom T omlinson, Auburn A866-151 was factory built by Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg, Co. and delivered in 1974 to Gerry Martel. It cost him $17,300 1974 dollars. It was the 51st of a total of 138 Speedsters built after Glenn Pray bought the Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Co. from Dallas Winslow who had acquired it in 1937. It is built on a 1973 Ford LTD chassis and powered by a 429ci Ford engine. There were no emmission controls on any of the A-C-D cars and many were titled as 1968 and earlier to avoid any problems with states being willing to title the cars. Mine is titled as a 1968. I am the fourth owner. The car has covered over 150,000 miles and has toured in Japan, Belgium Congo, Portugal, Spain, Iran, Italy, France and all over the US. The second owner had it for 26 years and drove it everywhere. I have applied to the AACA to show the car in National events in the new SGCV class.
