Learn about historic beginnings and endings in the automotive industry as told through three vehicles, a 1913 Buick, a 1927 Ford Model T, and a 1958 Edsel. Buick helped start General Motors and hasten the end of the independent auto makers. The Model T began Ford Motors and the rise of the automobile with the 1927 edition being the last Model T to be manufactured. The 1958 Edsel, Ford’s first mid-priced car of the ‘50’s, almost ruined the company and ended production after only two-and-a-half disappointing years. Each class will showcase one of the cars and its owner, and the cars will be there live (weather permitting) for you to view and ask questions about.
