  Details & Background

  I have been watching this Museum for several years.  Early this summer, they completed their phase 2 expansion.  I was very surprised at the overall quality of the museum and the abundance of information that is shared during the docent led tour. 

  The docent led tour takes about 3 hours.  The cars pretty much cover the Big 3 Auto Makers.  There are unusual production cars, concept cars and very limited production cars.  The docent, who retired from GM Design Studio got into how the cars shape, size, performance and colors represented the mood of the country at the time.  There was really a sociological basis for the cars that were produced and when.  As an example, during the Viet Nam period, there was a lot of anger in the country and all of a sudden there were wild bright colors, stripes, huge tail spoilers and hot engines so that the customers could vent their anger. 

  The Museum is inside an old school building and has been carefully turned into a great museum in the past 5 to 10 years.  I was so impressed that I am following them on Facebook, will be joining as a member of the Museum and looking into their monthly evening lecture series. Admission is $15 for adults and $12 for seniors and veterans.

  The Pontiac Transportation Museum is located at 250 W. Pike Street, Pontiac, MI.  It is basically several blocks west of the loop around Pontiac. On Saturday, they open at 10:00 and we can shoot for that.  When you arrive, there is a big mural on the side of the building.  Back your car up to the mural, with Jaguars in the center and we can take a nice group photo there.

  Following the Museum, we will go out for a late lunch a Heroes for lunch around 1:30 to 2:00.  Heroes is located at 998 West Huron, (M59), Waterford, MI. 48328.  They are just west of Telegraph Rd. on the North side of the street.  They have a very extensive menu.  The building sign and website name says BBQ, but that is only a small portion of what they have available.

  Come see and enjoy the Museum.  Bring whatever car fits your desires of the day.  Invite your friends and family to join us.  Please register for the event on the JAGM website so we can get a pretty good count on the attendance.
