Opening of Franklin Museum at The Gilmore.

[msmazcol]

Just returned from Hickory Corners, MI. Had a great dedication gathering at the Gilmore Museum, the site of the newly constructed Franklin Museum.

Cars and the Museum were great. Gilmore is an outstanding gathering point for car buffs with an already outstanding operation and many future plans in the works.

We were able to attend with two Franklins and give my parents a chance to see many long time friends.

Group was friendly, weather was great and the event was well planned and a great weekend.

Thanks

Another good reason to go back to the Gilmore comples!

Good looking building, is it modeled after an old Franklin dealership by chance?

Got any interior shots?

How many Franklins can be displayed inside?

Questions, questions, questions.....

The building was modeled after the Ralph Hamlin Franklin dealership in Los Angeles. There is a ton of info on this project at H.H. Franklin Club: Home Page

Sorry I don't have many photos. My Wife and Daughter usually take the pictures in the family after my many years of photography had burned me out.

They both headed in different directions on the weekend event.

I took about six photos five of which were out of focus. I'm still an old school film kind of guy. Give me a digital camera I'm in trouble.

My dad still hasn't gotten home from Michigan. I asked him to take a lot of pictures. I will post them when he returns.
