Macungie Show Pics Redux from Santa's Evil Twin
Two weeks ago in little Macungie PA...on the cusp of the Lehigh Valley (That's in northeast PA for all you folks from Lubbock TX) they held the annual Awkscht Fest where thousands of classic cars and trucks come to be seen. Enjoy
the small number I was able to see in the few hours my knees let me walk. Check out Mark Wiz'z post below for two days worth. He's a lot younger and lighter than yours truly.

Ahhh..the oldies..I mean the REAL oldies. Can't beat 'em. It kinda sends a shiver down my spine to realize that now we're seeing solid, well thought-out more or less practical cars that are a century old (and this includes the first issues of Henry's oh-so-modern model T). Also, nicest '37 Dodge PU I've seen.

PICS (1:1) Great shots of some unusual fare, Don. That Packard Touring car has more lights on it...
than the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree! And those TWO EMF's are really rare pieces. They were pretty hot cars in their day.
Here's a pic of a 1911 EMF race car that I took last year. It was really a ground up restoration, since it started with just the frame which was found half buried in the earth and being used to hold up a clothesline! :O

Thanks for posting, Don. I like just about all of them. Btw, what do the letters EMF stand for?

Everitt - Metzger - Flanders or Every Morning Fix it!

Don, great pictures; 100 year old cars are due respect.

Gene, I really would like to drive that!
Not too many EMF's got to these shores. I've never seen one in the metal.
