I shared pictures of the cars on display at The AACA Automobile Museum in Hershey, Pa. here.
They had a lot of "special exhibits" that I did not include in my initial post that I am sharing today.
The Faces of Valor had this car on display and it was one of my favorites.
The foundation uses this rod to promote its work and to raise funds supporting fire, police,
EMS first responders and military service veterans.
The Buick's patriotic red, white and blue colors
contains the faces of 43 first responders and veterans who have died during their service.
This was my favorite car...
hero's all of them.
They also had a recreation of a Drive-In Movie Theater...this was so cool.
Who remembers this?
Hooking this contraption onto the drivers side window so you could hear the movie.
A pay phone that you dial?
There was a Jute box on display...
Is an extremely rare car, one of a kind, gasoline powered automobile.
It is a small, lightweight auto buggy.
It is recognized as one of fewer that 300, gasoline powered vehicles, in the United States in 1897.
You know the drill...if you are in the area, I highly recommend you go.

Cool museum. Yep, I've been to a few such movies. Took my dog to see "101 Dalmations" at one. Snuck a couple of people in without paying that hid in the cabinet under the bed in our '62 VW bus. Pay phones were up to 10 cents in my days. Thanks for the tour. Linda in Kansas
Oh wow, that car would be my favorite too. So poignant to see all those dear faces. This looks like a fantastic museum Debbie, enjoyed all the photos very much. Thank you!
I've been there some years ago. Wonderful museum. We used to go to drive in movies all the time.
What a super museum.
Great photographs.
All the best Jan
Very cool museum, love how they honored those men in the car.
There is a drive in theater here in our town, we have only gone a couple of times.
WOW, I love that first car. That is really awesome. All those displays are so cool. I do remember those things from the drive in. Those were the days.
How fun! The cars are neat but I absolutely love the drive-in movie and associated memories!!! Marvelous. (and I am definitely old enough to remember.)
