Subject: AMC/Rambler/Nash Museum
Some of you may remember when an effort was made with a lot of work and donations from members of the various clubs to build a Transportation Museum in Kenosha, which, of course, would have been mainly for the AMC/Rambler/Nash vehicles. This effort failed but some moneys were given to the Kenosha County Historical Society to open their present building. This building does have a Rambler gallery but it is far from a real AMC/Rambler/Nash museum.
So I was mildly amused to read in this mornings Kenosha News that the cities plan for a Civil War museum is proceeding. They were given a $500,000 federal grant and the city has designated $14.8 million over the next two years for construction of the museum. The kicker in all this is that no Civil War was fought in or near Kenosha!! Wouldn't it of been better to build the Transportation Museum??
