One of the things that's great about this particular car is that it truly looks great from any angle you care to look at it. Most cars fall short on certain angles. Rolling sculpture.

Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Club 1600 S Wayne St, Auburn, IN 46706 Dear ACD Club. A few days ago I came across an article mentioning the fact that Ameila Earhart drove with George Putnam from Purdue University thru Portland, Ind, New Castle , Pa, St.Marys, Pa Towanda, Pa and then Newburgh,NY. She brought her plane back from California and I can only imagine that George Putnam drove his White Cord Convertable down from NY and met her and she drove home. She was returning to help FDR get re-elected. She was a member of the ninty Nines which she founded and there is a national chapter and local chapters.. If one of your members or several members could drive her route and stop along the way to promote this great Lady and the Cord it would be newsworthy. I'm still putting the various news articles on this together... contacting the news papers in the towns she stopped. But think think a recreation of this might be intereting. I understand that the car carried 17.5 gallons of gasoline and got 14 -15 MPG which should give us an idea how many times they had to refuel. Several such gas stops are noted. Amelia lived less thatn 220 days after she stopped in Towanda.. and 14 of those were campaigning for FDR who gave her a lot of logistic support on her flight around the world. Her campaing was called the Women's Caravan which she used her own car. Whether it was the Cord or not I don't know. Please think about this project. If someone does it I'll put them up in our local comfort in. I think that as we get more specific data from the towns she stopped or passed through and get the 99's involved it will take shape and be a media event. If you are intereted in helping to recreate such a car journey I would let the 99's know and I'm sure they would like to participate. Maybe even having members fly the route. Amelia said that this was the first time she drove through Towanda although she said that she had flown over towanda before. Sincerely, Joseph Dupont

Lou Costabile You use a better camera than me, mine is an old compact Casio, they don't focus closer than 18", otherwise they work great. what kind do you use? I like the little ones that I use cause I vid random stuff as it occurs, and so many cams are way toooooo complicated
CORVAIRWILD I agree I need a camera that's easy. I use a Sony Cyber-Shot for the "Landing Page photo" and to video I use a Sony HandyCam HDR-XR500. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the tip... Off to sheetrocking and painting, and I post vids of that boring stuff, and cleaning sewers...
I love that art deco era.
How do you top that?
Can't, just enjoy her as you would a beautiful woman.
