Honk, Rattle & Roll Members,

It’s a new year and time to prepare for another exciting schedule of driving tours! Our first will be to the Lane Motor Museum in Nashville on February 17th. For those not familiar with the museum, it features mostly unique European automobiles from the past sprinkled with cars from other areas, many of which you won’t find anywhere else. The facility is 132,000 sq. ft. and was the former home of the Sunbeam Bakery. Our tour will be self-guided thru the public upper floor area while a member of the Lane staff will guide us through the lower level.

As usual, Russ Barnes has created a scenic route to the museum over areas of Rutherford, Wilson and Davidson Counties. A route map will be emailed soon.  

We plan to depart from “Loafers Glory” at 9:30 A.M.  Coffee and donuts will be available beginning at 8:30. We will also have displays of our HRR wearing apparel, hold another 50/50 raffle similar to the one at the Christmas party, and conduct the drawings for the HRR web site featured cars. You will also have time to see Tom’s collections as well.

Upon arrival at the Lane Museum, a Jason’s Deli box lunch will be served in their meeting room. The box will contain either chicken salad or ham sandwiches, chips, desert and iced tea. Other drinks are available via museum vending machines.

The cost for the Lane tour and lunch is $20.00 per person and will be collected before departing Loafers Glory. CASH ONLY PLEASE!
