Midway

Hi McHinson, Yes, here's a photo of the other car. It may be hard to see at this resolution, but the embossing on the radiator is "Ford." The white card in the windshield said it was a '29 T model, but I thought that was might late for T models (what the heck do I know!) so it may be an A model. There's too much glare on the windshield to make it out. We will be back up there in a few weeks and verify. I'll also try and locate an owner. Yes, Wilmington is a LONG way away. Lovely city, though.

Hello Everyone. I posted about this on the Maxwell forum, and it was suggested that this forum would get greater attention. I ran across an old Maxwell and a '29 Model T that I'm afraid will be gone for good unless someone has the interest and goes to the effort to rescue these vehicles. Here's a Link on Maxwell forum.

Sorry I posted to the incorrect forum. This was my first post here so please pardon my mistake. Perhaps a/the moderator can cross post? Anyway, I'm a photographer (not a pro) not a car collector, although I owned a 67 Tornado for a number of years, but sold it sometime back. The Maxwell is in Boone, NC at a place called "Antiques and Stuff" By far, it is mostly "stuff." It is located at a major intersection - East King Street and 194. This is a major intersection, and the car is almost right on the road. I can't imagine why no one has picked it up by now. The store appears almost abandoned, and there's a "condemned" sign on a stairway. I was attracted to the place because I thought I could find some interesting photos there and I did. Oh, BTW, in the stall next to the Maxwell is a '29 Model T that looks like you could "drive it off the lot." While I'm not interested in restoring cars, I would hate to see them lost forever. Perhaps someone will see this post and go after these cars before the bulldozers come in. If you do, please keep me posted.

I'm not a car collector, but I ran across this old Maxwell in an apparently abandoned junk/antique shop. I have no interest in the car itself, but am just curious about the type, vintage, etc.
