Matthew Keij and I traveled to Hershey on Wednesday, to visit the AACA Museum. While there were many fine cars on display there, there were few from the fifties era - and, virtually none from the Forward Look. There was a picture of a '59 though! Who owns this car? If you look closely, you'll see the ghost of a '59 aficionado...
Then, onto Earl Hess' home - where Matthew took some pix of data plates, and convertible top assemblies. Earl told us about a movie his black '59 was recently featured in - I'm in contact with the producer for film clips. Stay tuned!

Tell Matthew to stay away from that Convert! He can not have them all!
I know he is already angling for the Pilot seat in that powder blue convert of Earl's for Carlisle this year!

The reason for that, is because he expects Earl to be driving the hardtop - and for you to be driving your Belvy from Chez Morton!

Johnny, I already reserved that seat.
We dropped by at Earls place to put the sign up there on the seat.

How can a museum have a show on fins, and not have any cars from the Fifties on display??

The poster is from an earlier exhibit, Roger. They rotate their exhibitions, with many cars on loan.
