Please mark May 14, 2005 on your calendar, to join our local club to tour the “Memories” Garage at Jerome Duncan Ford, in Sterling Heights, MI. Dick Duncan and Wally Tennyson curators of the museum promise that we will be treated to some of Ford’s most cherished collection of 28 cars and memorabilia. They have a Thunderbird for most of the decades on display. There is also a 46 Lincoln and a Model A in process of restoration. You will be hard pressed to find an inch of wall space or counter that is not covered by collectables.

In the courtyard, they have the original front façade of the old Lincoln plant. You can enjoy sitting in the courtyard or getting your picture taken. In addition to all of that, they will roll out some of the cars to join our line up of fine Thunderbirds. We will have reserved parking around the courtyard.

The dealership is excited that we chose to celebrate our fiftieth anniversary with them. The Duncan’s promised to roll out the red carpet. They will be advertising our event, so others can enjoy looking at our cars. There will be some giveaways, such as, collectable posters and trinkets. Lets have a great showing of the cars we prize!

The “Memories” Garage is located on Ford Country Lane (17 ½ Mile Road) behind the dealership. The dealership is located on M53 (Van Dyke) between 17 & 18 Mile Roads.
The tour begins at 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. After the tour, we will caravan north to have lunch at Chubby’s BBQ Restaurant. Chubby’s is located on M59, just east of the M53 Freeway, on the south side of the road. We will need a count of people that are coming. This will allow the dealership to prepare and the restaurant will have an idea of the number of settings. Please PM me if you wish to attend
