Towe Auto Museum (Sacramento) - CS Regirstry Book

[68Fan]

Fellow GT/CS enthusiasts,

The other weekend I spent a few hours going through the Sacramento Towe Auto Museum looking at many Ford products including an impressive display of early production models (A’s, T’s, etc.). Unfortunately there were no GT/CSs but low and behold, in the gift shop, sitting like the holy grail, was 2 brand spankin new copies of the GT/Californial Special Recognition Guide and Owner’s Manual (first editions). It was nice to see that the literature has made it to a museum.

If you are looking for a rainy day activity and find yourself in the greater Sacramento region, stop by the Towe Auto Museum. Attached is a URL.

Just curious, what were the books selling for?

I believe they were $18.95. They were under $20 for sure.

I called the gift shop and the person who answered the phone told me they just sold the 4 copies they had to a single buyer.

How Weird.

I took those copies on my 1988 edition in person, and sold them to the gift shop about 1994. They must have been put away for a really long time! I haven't been there since!

Someone got a small gold mine. Look on EBAY now.

I guess that was the book equivalent of finding an old car in a barn.

Yes, I was the one who bought the registries. I will be making 2-3 of them available to the board members.

Next week when I get them I will post something about them. Stay tuned.
