The Ford Barn

Last evening I went to the opening night of a new Ford Garage USA Restaurant in the Smithaven Mall of Smithtown, New York (on Long Island). The theme of this restaurant is the Model "A" Ford. There are 3 Model A's in the place, a 45B 1930 Deluxe Coupe suspended over the bar, and outside is 1930 Briggs Town Sedan and 1929 Tudor. The Coupe over the bar has electric motors turning its wheels, and all of the exterior lights were on. Very impressive. The walls of the restaurant were decorated with Model A, Model T & Flathead V* parts, lots of 1930s gasoline signs, and many 1930s era photos. The food was excellent, and they even named a burger for my local Model A club. The men's room has wheels for sinks and gas pump nozzles for faucets.
