For those interested, the Baker's Sunday event starts May 2. Every Sunday, weather permitting, Baker's in Milford hosts the biggest weekly free show in the Midwest. Lots of everything. Saw a Daytona Coupe and a new ZR1 there last summer, but never an ASC....
Thursdays Depot Town in Ypsi has a nice event and right next to the last functioning Hudson dealer (through the 80s at least. Now a museum). Also free and quite nice, but much smaller than Bakers.
Come on out and show off your McLaren and make those Mustang guys jealous like it's 1985!
Michaigan finally gets Spring! Cruise season is here!

Can you give me directions from Northern New Jersey? 
In Lakewood New Jersey, (southern part of the state), there was an ACTIVE and very open Studebaker Dealership up through 1971, Last Stude car was 1966. It had been a big & active dealership prior to 1967 and the owner went around buying up all the remaining new-car stock of 1966s from Phila. Pa. and N.J. and nearby N.Y. to the happiness of THOSE dealers !! He continued to sell new & used cars AND do service on Studebakers for an additional 5 years, AFTER Studebaker was gone!
Reminds me of what you wrote regarding Hudson.

Jersey to Detroit? Head West until you see Lake Erie, then follow the abandoned factories until you find the mother lode, Detroit.
This place is in freefall. You could make a fortune driving empty U-Hauls back here--perhaps with a car or two in them....
Think Depot Town in Ypsilanti has an Orphan Car show too. Wonder if ASCs qualify like the Hudson, Nash, Studebaker, et al.?
