The Automotive Hall of Fame elected to bring the replica Motorwagen into operational condition to participate in various events around the Dearborn area, including Old Car Festival inside Greenfield Village at The Henry Ford.

A full condition inspection was completed on the vehicle before any work was performed. After determining that the vehicle could be made operational with little risk to the integrity of the vehicle, we inspected all the vehicle’s systems and prepared it for operation. Once the vehicle was running, we have been maintaining the vehicle for annual operation at events.
