As the Saturday show wrapped up, we headed to the Beller Museum in nearby Romeoville. Jordan Beller is a retired optometrist and land developer who has a penchant for 1930s era Fords of all shapes and sizes. He especially loves 1932 Fords. The museum's rather bland exterior did not prepare us for what was inside:
He also had a complete collection of license plates from 1932 from every state in the union (except Alaska and Hawaii since they hadn't joined yet) along with dozens of Illinois plates from the 30s.
The museum's caretaker also took us through the machine shop and the thousands of parts that keep many of Mr. Beller's Fords in running condition.
The real treat came at the end as we all got to board a 1930s elementary school bus.
Then it was off to Salerno's for pizza, courtesy of our day's host Jeff Lane.
