I visited the Stahls Car Museum last week in Chesterfield, Michigan. This is a private museum located in a light industrial area and is open to the public, free of charge, for 3 hours on Tuesdays and Saturdays. The museum houses 90 of his perfectly restored vehicles. All are running vehicles. He has a warehouse and garage located in St. Clair Shores with another 60 vehicles. Vehicles can be rotated on a regular basis. Many "Best of Show" awards from the top shows. He also has four restored pipe organs that can be played by hand or automatically. I took many photos and plan to return for more.

The 1904 Peerless Type 8 Style K is powered with a 24 hp four-cylinder engine and a three-speed transmission. It was built shortly after the company switched from clothes wringers and bicycles to automobiles.

Beautiful images of a beautifully restored vehicle. Before the Model T Ford came to light.

Comfortable and luxurious looking seats. They also look to be rather protective with their wrap around design.
They don't make cars like that anymore.
