I attended the car show portion of the Pierce-Arrow Society meet in Minden, NV today. Here are some pictures of the wonderful Pierce-Arrows on display.

Thanks for the great pictures. I was hoping someone would post some from the Pierce-Arrow Meet. How many cars are in attendance?

I am not sure how many cars were registered. I would guess that there must have been 40-50 cars? Here are some additional pictures of some of the earlier Pierce-Arrows.

52 cars, a motorcycle, several bikes, and a V-12 engine of display. It was a great time. Here is a shot of a car we found in the Bay area, it's now in a good friends garage. A nice 33 Salon series Club Brougham. Nice west coast car, perfect tin, and perfect wood. Ed

MARK, thanks especially for the big photo files, which can be zoomed-in for details. Bit slow to download but well worth the wait. Couple of stand-out favourites for me: that mid-'30s club sedan with built-in trunk (Dietrich body, maybe?) and that 'Teens coupe with curved corner glass. Of course, being Pierce-Arrows they were all outstanding, including the rough one that Ed shared with us.

I gotta ask: how did this meet happen in Minden, Nevada? Pretty long way from anywhere, according to Google Maps, although the site does look lovely.

Rob: I am nota member of the Pierce-Arrow Society. Iam a member of the CCCA and one of the P-A members invited me to the car showon the final day of the meet. Minden, NVis a little off the beaten path but near many great attractions. During the meet P-A members toured to VirginiaCity, Reno, and Lake Tahoe. I am sure itwas great fun for everyone who attended. <o:p></o:p>

Mark,

Thank you for posting these photos. As a CCCA ,an former P-A-S member, I really appreciate seeing this assemblage, and wish I could have been there in person.

One of my favorite memories, years ago, is that my wife and I got to ride in the back seat of David Coco's 1931 Model 43 Phaeton after a Mardi Gras parade here in New Orleans.
