This Tiny Town Might Have More Classic Cars than Residents
Small-town America loves its summertime holiday parades, and Harbor Springs, Michigan, puts on a great one every Fourth of July. It's so well attended that this old-money beach town of only 1200 year-round residents probably quintuples its headcount on Independence Day. The cars are a big draw, most of them belonging to summertime residents (from Detroit, Chicago, and much further away) whose families have been boating, sunning, and tending to stately waterfront homes for generations.
We also met up with Gary Dwight, a retired surgeon from the Lansing area who lives in Harbor Springs and has built the ultimate man cave where he stores three Packards, a Shelby Cobra replica, a 1987 Ferrari 328 GTS, and a newer BMW 6-Series.
