About 60 club members participated in the event that started at Jack Krompatic’s house in Farmington Hills where we had coffee and donuts and viewed the vehicles in his garages.

Jack’s collection includes Jack Krompatic, and Ed Goff several early 50’s Fords! Next we motored to Alex Atard’s House in Farmington Hills. Alex’s collection of cars and other antiques and collectibles is amazing! He began his car collection in 1958 and has over 50 cars mostly from the late teens into the 20’s. Some of these cars have been restored, but a majority are sitting outside in Owned by the open in their “original” state.

  • THE 2-LITRE SWALLOW DORETTI a Smart, Nicely-Finished, Lively 2-Seater with the Well-Established Two-Carburetter Standard Vanguard Engine
    MOTOR SPORT NOVEMBER, 1954 " MOTOR SPORT" TESTS- THE 2-LITRE SWALLOW DORETTI A Smart, Nicely-Finished, Lively 2-seater with the Well-Established Two-Carburetter Standard Vanguard Engine in this country is 90 m.p.h., while the provision of an electrically- selected overdrive top gear of 3.03 to 1, as compared to the normal top gear ratio of 3.7 to 1, while contributing nothing to maximum speed, does endow the Doretti with very effortless running qualities and a fuel consumption which can be as modest as 28 n1.p.g. The lines of the car draw admiring glances and closer inspection reveals a high standard of appointment and detail finish. The interior is luxuriously upholstered and carpeted, with padding on doors and scuttle secured by imitation Osca-lacing. The dashboard is covered with leather which matches the upholstery and the wool- lined, easy-to-erect hood with its big plastic rear window, rigid Perspex sidescreens with hinged signalling flaps, and provision of a well made, full-width tonneau cover are complementary to the car's air of quality and good breeding. Self-caucelliug winking indicators, a Smith's 2 kw. heater (with screen ducts) as standard, and pro- vision for a radio are other notable " roadster " features. The bucket seats grip their occupants firmly, and the slightly curved, full-width windscreen efficiently deflects air from the interior of the car. The instrument panel, too, is in quiet good taste, with indicator lights only for ignition-discharge, indicators-working and full- headlamps beam, neat dials of uniform size keeping the driver informed as to water temperature (normally 140 deg.
