Introduction

Postby jperodeau » Sat Sep 06, 2014 12:21 pm

Hi,

I am with the Tampa Bay Automobile Museum (tbauto.org), in Pinellas Park, Florida. We focus on cars that played a unique role in the development of the automobile - early front-wheel drive, rear engines, air cooling, etc.

We recently acquired a 1966 Toronado to complement our early American front-wheel drive cars (1929 Ruxton, 1929 Cord, and 1937 Cord).

I'll probably be online with questions as time goes by.

That's awesome. I vacation in Clearwater/St. Pete every year and have never had the time to come to your museum. I looked at all the cars online a few years back.

Usually I'm driving my '56 Coupe de Ville but maybe this year I'll come down in my '66 Toronado. I'll have to see the museum then!

What's ironic is that we stay so close to the museum that last year we rode our bicycles to the location. (you were closed)

I forgot to ask if you would post a photo of your new addition.

Welcome and congratulations on a fine acquisition! These cars do not get the exposure they deserve. Yes, please post a photo, we'd love to see it!
