Michigan's AutoTalk Episode 61: "Summer HotRod Apprenticeships and Model T Driving lessons at The Gilmore Car Museum," executive producer Phil Tower joins co-hosts Al Schwinkendorf and John Puhek for our third part of three live podcast recordings from inside the Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, Michigan.

In this episode, Amy Everhart Perry, from The Gilmore Car Museum, talks about the incredible learning opportunities at the Gilmore including The amazing Gilmore Garage Works after-school enrichment program where mentors provide insight-filled instruction in automotive technology, giving students skills in welding, painting, and fabrication.
Upon completion, students leave the Gilmore Garage Works program with a resume, a portfolio, and personal letters of recommendation—as well as self-confidence and a sense of accomplishment.
Amy also tells us about their "Model T Driving experience where people learn to drive a Model T Ford…operated with 3 foot pedals (No Gas Pedal!), one hand lever, and two hand controls on the steering wheel! Drivers gt to take the wheel of an AUTHENTIC Model T Ford, built between 1908 and 1927, and drive 3 miles on paved roads within our historic campus with an experienced and enthusiastic instructor.
Finally, we chat about the awesome benefits of being a member of The Gilmore Car Museum as the museum offers a wide variety of annual membership levels for individuals, families, and friends. (*HINT-a killer gift idea for car lovers everywhere)
