The Stutz Blackhawk of Alamo Cement receives 1st prize at Hershey, PA

The Alamo Cement 1927 Stutz Blackhawk was shown on October 8, 2011 at the 56th Annual Hershey, PA Fall Meet by John Henderson and Henry Mueller. This was an Antique Automobile Club of America National Meet. Approximately 1,200 cars/trucks were on the show field during judging. Vehicles drove to the show field in parade route fashion. All vehicles were open to all viewers on the show field. The Stutz was in class 18D described as “Classic Vehicles, specifically named: 1925-1927.” Six 18D vehicles were on the show field. Two 1927 Rolls Royce competed directly against the Stutz. Vehicles exited the show field again in parade fashion. The Stutz has a factory exhaust cut out and this was opened during the exit resulting in additional interest as the Stutz noisily rumbled past the spectators.

The Stutz received lots of interest and praise for its restored condition. The judges awarded the Stutz 1st Place at the awards dinner that evening, presenting a very nice trophy statuette. It’s certainly a tribute to those who decided to recondition it, the people who worked on it, and the people who participated in preparing and showing the car.
