This one seat buggy was donated recently by the Fearheiley family and needs restoration. It is estimated that it could be cleaned, painted and have new upholstery on the seat and dash for around $750. Volunteers work on projects like this to save money but some things have to be done by experienced craftsmen.
Another badly needed project is to enclose the veranda of the museum and make it a four seasons room. The addition of a roof and walls will keep rain water and moisture from coming into the rear portion of the building. Preliminary estimates for this project are around $30,000. Call or come to see this area if you have questions.
