If Cars Could Talk – Auburn Cars: The Trail to the Boat Tail

February 7, 2017 @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm

Free
A 1932 Auburn Boattail Speedster owned by Bruce Wanta won Best in Show at the 2015 Pacific Northwest Concours d’Elegance.

There are many chapters to the story of the automobile. If cars could talk, they might just share stories we never imagined. Each month, our speaker will pick a car and offer a fascinating peek into its history. Join us the first Tuesday of each month, and explore the story of cars with Museum curators, staff, or local personalities over lunch.

ACM Volunteer Greg Camp will discuss the history of Auburn Automobiles beginning with the founding of Eckhart Carriage Company in Auburn, Indiana. With the help of colorful businessman E. L. Cord, they evolved to become the maker of the one most stylish and exciting American cars of the 1930s.

Free, with Museum admission. Bring a lunch, or enjoy a meal from Classics by Pacific Grill.
