    Went to a small cruise in tonight at the Early Ford V8 Museum in Auburn Indiana,its about a 20 minute drive north of the house. Had a small turn out,but took the time to go thru the museum. I think they had alot of cool stuff, so I snapped some pictures to share.

    Some of the cruise-in cars....

  20. Great pictures! Thanks. So where exactly is the museum? Anywhere near the ACD museum? I'm very familiar with Auburn having friends and family in the area and would love to come out and see it for myself.

    jgb7038,
    Thanks for the great picture update on a very nice museum. My first visit was during the '09 Ford V8 event, and the last was during the '11 V8 show. There are many new items since my last visit, so a return to the museum is in the future! :)
