Look for a nice one page article on PHA Museum & Archive in the October 2011 issue of Hemming Motor News! I've already been contacted by one PHA Veteran due to the article!

Re: Hillclimb "Stuff" at Historical Society

Did someone hook them up with some PHA stuff? I know you were asking me for some...sent pixs of what I had to Merlin...and heard nothing more about it. I even contacted them directly, was in conversation with one of the directors, offered to do a presentation and loan items....more nothing... :(

Re: HERSHEY "GRAND ASCENT" 2011

Posting this on behalf of Steve Moskowitz: Please allow me to separate out the fiction from the facts about the event in Hershey this June. There was only one weekend we could get with the Hotel in June next year as the idea did not even gather any steam until March of this year. We knew our event p...

Hopefully, by winter's end…I'll have new software and will have particular films uploaded to the internet, so everyone can check'em out. As of now there are a few historic PHA films...

These photos are from Mel Horn...taken a few years back
