Red Barn Spectacular with WMFLU

[kmead]

So, you didn't go to Freak Out this year to hang out with all of your best FIAT buds from across the US and Canada this year?

Here is a great opportunity to hang out with your WMFLU FIAT friends at a wonderful venue with all manner of cars being shown and barns full of classic and unusual cars.
We would like to follow that with a drive around Gun Lake with a late lunch or early dinner to finish off the day led by none other than Tom Walters who has led this expedition successfully in the past for us

Although we are driving around a lake, it won't all be left turns like our roundy pounder friends as seen on TV, these are twisty local roads well worth your time and to exercise the abilities of your Italian steed.

Hope to have you join us for a great day of driving and classic car viewing.

We will meet up for the drive down to the Gilmore at the 68th St Kmart parking lot in Gaines township at 8am on Saturday Aug 3rd. We will leave from there to arrive at the Gilmore by 8:45. If you are not coming from the GR area,please be along the side road of the route from 131 to the museum to catch the rest of the group and enter en masse onto the museum grounds.

Please email Tom Walters at twalt33 at aol.com or contact him by cell phone at (616) four three seven -1664 to let him know you will be coming. We would like to arrange a Fiat area at the show so we would appreciate knowing who is going to be there.

Thanks and all the best

After vacationing in Western Michigan for many years I finally made it to the Gilmore Museum last weekend. Wish I had made my way there much sooner. Incredible location with so much automotive history to see.

Had I known there was going to be a Fiat contingent at this weekends event I would have rescheduled. If anyone is trying to make up their mind about attending this event don't hesitate to witness this venue.
