Davis Collection

Pre-tailfin Cadillac.	View from a Speedwell car's mother-in-law seat.

Only the very wealthy could buy a Marmon 16. The Rockefellers had one.

	One room houses a collection of antique bicycles.

	That metal box on the floor is a heater.
	Very few Americans would ever be a "man who owns one."
Pierce Arrow, Packard and Peerless -- the three great "P's."
Seagrave fire engine engine. 24 spark plugs for six cylinders.
I gotta put in a plug for the Star Car.	Davis with ... um ... some guy who is on TV and likes cars.
Davis discussing 1911 air-cooled Franklin race car.	The exhibit is a replica of an automobile repair shop of the time.
	A super hot rod being built on a Model A chassis.

This room contains molds and patterns.

The engine was rated (conservatively, it is thought) at 24 horsepower.	How did the driver squeeze into this tiny compartment?
	Brought from Missouri, the contents of this shop date back to the 1860's
	Mercer race car.
The picture above the Harley-Davidson was taken in 1917 or 1918.	In all likelihood no one in this picture is alive today. Indeed, some would not survive the great global Influenza pandemic that followed the first world war.
It appears most of the vehicles lined up for Automobile Day are trucks.	The event was a promotion for War Savings Stamps, to help finance the war.
I think this car is now on display at the Zink Ranch northwest of Tulsa.	Looks great! Now if it had a chassis ....
What a wonderful collection and restoration shop to visit! Now, y'all have a nice trip home!
