<VV> Detroit Historical Museum/Fort Wayne

[Clark Hartzel]

A few decades ago Fort Wayne had a nice car show every summer on the parade
grounds next to the Detroit River.  Due to budget cuts, Fort Wayne was
closed and that show is long gone.  Once, while there at the show we got a
tour inside the warehouse.  It was sad seeing cars that were donated,
sitting uncovered, with dust and bird poop all over them.  Many windows in
the building were broken and pigeons made it their home.  The Detroit Area
Corvair Club even offered to restore the 1960 Corvair for them but they
weren't interested.  Anything run by government is screwed up!  They ought
to sell the cars to collectors, which would "save" the cars, and make
Detroit some money.  Then burn the building down and be done with it!  It
would cost more to fix that place than it is worth.
