Title: Vintage Auto Museum of New Jersey
Post by: kvbug (karen) on January 15, 2012, 12:19:57 pm
My father in law is on the board (President) of the Museum, so I just thought I'd throw it out there for people to see.  I don't believe people really know about it.  I've been told I have to get involved in it,  especially since I now have a vintage automobile...

I believe they have them in a pole barn right now, and am not sure what's there.  They rotate them.

Ok Shawn, thanks.  I know they are looking for people to do fundraisers to help get the museum built.    If you can think of anything, let me know.    thumpup)-
