Thumbs up Road Stop: Lee Hartung’s Museum

Road Stop: Lee Hartung’s Museum
Harley Hartung's Auto Museum 3623 W Lake Ave. Glenview IL 60025

The most recent Hartung story tells of Jay Leno visiting the museum to buy a Flying Merkel boardtracker that was, as the story goes, “just sitting on a shelf.” The story has the usual Hartung ending, too—like everybody else, Leno couldn’t cinch the deal.
There’s also the tale about how the folks representing the Pebble Beach automotive concours d’elegance sought one of Hartung’s cars for the California classic. Turns out that the Hartung collection includes the very first car to win Pebble Beach. Hartung chose not to attend, and the car stayed home, too.

Here is a slide show from my friend Rick in Chicago who went along there at the weekend.

Beautiful day, good turn out for our visit to Lee Hartung's time capsule.
A Knuck, four Pans and three Shovelheads made the ride to Glenview.
Here's a slideshow.

Enjoy
Rick
