I leave for a conference in Haifa and Tel Aviv Israel
Next week. Also there for the first exhibition of my new photography show, Anatomy, featuring images of model T parts. Will be there for around two weeks and was wondering of there are any model T owners or historic car collections there.

Since Henry didn't care much for Jews, it will be interesting to see how your discussion goes.

Mark, I don't know if there are any Model Ts in Israel. You could get in touch with the Five Club. I am sure they would know.

There is a car museum in Western Galilee.

Yes, I know of Henry Ford’s antisemetic leanings. Nevertheless I’m pretty sure there are plenty of Jewish owners of antique Ford cars and even German made cars in the United States. Just wondering if there are any in Israel since I’m leaving this week.
My exhibit opening is of photographs that are details of my 23’ model T that resemble the human body. No political or religeous elements. I am not Jewish ... so it will be interesting to see if there is any push back from the viewers based on Henry Ford’s history.

Interesting. Most websites in languages of limited diffusion have a language switch, either for a complete English version of the website or an English summary. This one doesn't appear to.
