New London to New Brighton Run

Post by paul schaefer » Sun Aug 10, 2025 8:29 am

Early Fords made a great showing on the run. We had 2 1904 model A, 3 model F, 1 K roadster, 1 model N, 2 model R, 1 model S runabout and one model S Roadster. All but 1 model F finished. The F had a coil box malfunction.

Wow! That's an impressive turnout of early Fords. Eleven of them. This has the makings for a national magazine article. This could include each of these cars with some back round information, etc. and individual pictures. Thank you, Paul, for posting this information.
