On the way home from Hershey I stopped in Richmond and enjoyed a couple of hours at our museum. The pictures are here:

Great pictures, thanks for sharing.
Steve,
The 1909 racer is an exact replica? I see it is a 2 pedal 2 lever, but with turn signals? That kind of ruins the look. It is otherwise a very cool T.

Steve,
Thanks for taking and posting the pictures. I don't think I'll ever make it to the right coast
to buy a Hershey bar but hope to see the museum
some day.
Hershey's just another day's drive, Dennis.
exact copy,Way too many pictures survive for a exact copy! Yup seen the [exact copy] at the press realise for the Centional Tour,and the real car was 1 lever 3 pedals with no water pump? Lot's of pictures of the cars/race in Tin Lizzie by Stern.If i rember at the time of the Towe collection sale this car was touted as the real car but several told me it was a fake! There are a few mistakes but if you do not have a copy of Tin Lizzie by Stern your not a model T Lover! PS/BS The Ford got there first but was awarded second place! Bud.
