Taking a break from the make.

I went down to the AACA Museum yesterday in order to see the Tucker display. It didn't disappoint! Pictures follow:

It's in Hershey, Pennsylvania, just a few miles from the capital of Harrisburg.

When Mr. Cammack was alive, the collection was located in a converted firehouse in Alexandria, VA. I got a chance to see it then. It was amazing. The NOS parts still in original boxes just blew me away, as did the prototype chassis and the string of experimental engines and transmissions. He also had the complete upstairs covered with factory documents. He had enlisted college students to help catalogue everything.

Those are amazing cars! I am surprised when folks don't know the automotive name Tucker.
