Auburn Cord Duesenberg Reunion-2007



Every year the week before Labor Day finds hundreds of Auburns, Cords and Duesenberg Automobiles heading for Auburn, Indiana- The Home Of The Classics. The ACD Club holds its annual reunion and what a time it is-thousands of people flock to this area. Some watch the Kruse Auction (see on ESPN); some visit antique and quilt shows; others, like ourselves, go on tour with 50 antique cars. It is called the Hoosier Tour and we spend about three days travelling to Ohio, Indiana or Michigan.


There are many parties, banquets, car shows, and a large parade of classic cars. The women enjoy an elaborate tea-wearing vintage clothing and hats.


The following picture shows George- our past president- in a past time- touring with his pedal car. The other picture is our friend , Bill, flashing his, Shitty Restoration Shirt. Bill sold his car and was looking for a project. He bought an antique manure spreader and restored it like new and placed it in his front yard. During election years, he attaches a sign reading-Political Machine. Around Christmas a new sign is poster-Spreading Good Cheer. I couldn't resist sending him that shirt.
