Seen in the Amelia Island Concours Parking Lot: Fatty Arbuckle’s 1923 McFarlan


After the end of the very special Amelia Island Concours, I drove the Black Beast back to trailer parking lot to pack up for home. To my pleasant surprise, a spectacular 1923 McFarlan was parked nearby.

Enjoy,

The McFarlan was reportedly owned by actor Fatty Arbuckle. The impressive instrument panel. The "Fatty" California license plate. The McFarlan is owned by the Nethercutt Museum in Sylmar, California.

Gorgeous car!  And the Nethercutt Museum is a delight—I’ve been there twice(when I visit my daughter in California) and never cease to marvel at their collection.
