Stutz in the UK Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Dear AllI am trying to carry out some research - any information would be useful please.Attached to the engine side of the wooden bulkhead on my 1917 Stutz Roadster is a metal plateIt reads:SPECIAL NUMBER PLATE S 31833 PA. DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE PENNSYLVANIADoes anyone know what this plate is for please, or when it was issued? My car is now in the UK and came to the UK from Italy. I don't have very much history of the car before it went to Italy. However, from another plate (or to be precise, a rally plaque), attached this time to the drivers side of the bulkhead, I know the car was at some time in Dearborn. This plate says 'Greenfield Village, Dearborn, Michigan 1951, Veteran Motor Car Club of America'. Is this near the Henry Ford Foundation? Does anyone have a programme from this rally that might list a previous owner or some of the cars history please?Any information would be useful regarding either plate pleaseThank you, Regards Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryB Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Sounds like the car was issued a new PA title some time in its past ownership and that was the serial number assisgned to it by the PA Dept of Transportation. Greenfield Village is part of the Henry Ford Museum complex in Dearborn.Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Commodore Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 You might contact the Veteran Motor Car Club of America for information on the 1951 Greenfield Village meet. See link.http://www.vmcca.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Pershing Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Do you still have the 1951 Greenfield Village plaque and if so are you interested in selling it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Schramm Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I believe 1951 was the first year of the "Old Car Festival" which occurs about the second weekend in Sept every year. Here is a link to this years event. I consider it the best car fest that anyone can attend. We ALWAYS go with at least one of our vehicles. Usually over 700 pre 1932 vehicles. https://www.thehenryford.org/current-events/calendar/old-car-festival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
