Some fun at Meadowbrook

AKA John and Horace’s house.
My car club had a photo op with the 47 dodge you see in the pictures. We have adopted this pick up as a club and get to help the Foundation with its care and maintenance for the year. It was a neat opportunity to spend some time with it on this amazing and historical property.
It was a weekday so club turnout was pretty light but I was happy to be able to breakaway for the fun and decided to take the Dodge. Four out of five Who showed came with their convertible’s.

I stuck around for a little extra fun after the main photo shoot.

I've made that trip a few times when they still held the Concourse De Elegance there. I even got the grand tour of the home one time. It's ah truly unbelievable little Ponderosa, lol

Great photos, but a swanky joint like this should have an Imperial in the driveway!

Your car looks great! Are any of the vehicles in the garages from the Dodge family? I realize the ones pictured on the right are too new to have been the brothers' cars. I would love to see the estate myself someday.

Yes there are a couple of them, including the last 1 owned by John briefly before he died. It’s inside the museum along with things like original toolboxes and desks etc. adjacent to the long garage in the pics.

I haven’t gotten the silver one out yet but I think I still would’ve taken the Dodge.

Looks like a country estate somewhere in England....stunning.

A fascinating place. All the building materials were imported from around the world. Each chimney, there are several of them, is different from the rest.
I still think it was a much better setting for the Concourse then the present location.

Wonder if the Groundz keepers had to deal with too many tire trackz after the event, the poor solez. I just know that had to work them half to death one time for the year? Jer
