Brought back some memories for them, I am sure. Great way to tell your car's story.

Great thing to do! I am suree that you and the others brought back some great memories for the seniors. I attended a show at a Veteren's center a few year ago with my Model T. I noticed a gentleman using a walker going over to my car and looking it all over carefully. I went over and greeted him and he said "That's a 27 isn't it?" I was surprised that he could pick out the exact year and asked him how he could tell. Turns out that he grew up on Grand Manan island in the Bay of Fundy on our Atlantic Coast and that his Dad was the Ford dealer for the Island in the late 20's and he had been fascinated by the cars as a young boy and learned as much as he could about the different models and years. There wasn't an opportunity to take the resident't for a ride that day and when I checked a few weeks later to see if I could arrange to take him out, it turned out that he had died shortly after the show. Opportunity missed but I am glad he had a chance to enjoy looking at and talking about the car and his memories.
