Guest Cheri Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I am looking for some private antique car collections in the Lake Geneva area for our Illinois Region AACA Fall Tour in Mid October this year, 2010. We are just planning the Fall tour stops and places of interest, for our three days in Walworth County and we would like to add a nice Antique car collection to have our members stop at.Thank you!

Restorer32 Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Not private and likely not in Walworth County but have you toured the Hartford Heritage Museum in Hartford? Largest display of Kissels and Kissel and Nash memorabilia anywhere. One of my favorite small museums. The curator, Dale Anderson, is very accomodating.

Guest Cheri Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Thank you for your response. We were at Hartford Heritage Museum about 5 or 6 years ago on one of our Region Spring Tours. We had a caterer there and had our banquet dinner in the museum. If we can't find another good car collection in the Lake Zurich area , we may tour to Hartford.

Restorer32 Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Just had a thought....we were at Hartford Heritage last June for the Kissel Gathering and as part of the weekend we toured a very large and interesting private fire equipment collection in the area. I'm sure Dale could put you in touch with the owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cheri Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Thanks again, we will give Dale a call as we are now heading up that way today, looking around. Fire equipment would be good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Lichtfel Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Lake Geneva is a good place for a tour. There are a few boat and car collections in the area. A good friend of mine lives in Fontana who has an antique car and has wanted to have a tour there. If you Email me your address I will send you his name and address. I think he would be glad to help.
