Thirteen antique cars, members of the Canada Flivver Drivers, visited Batavia over the weekend, making a stop Sunday at the home of Dave Armitage and Dona LaValley on South Main Street in Batavia. Armitage has an extensive collection of old cars, three of which are pictured below. From left are a 1913 Model T Depot Hack (forerunner of the station wagon), a 1926 four-door Model T and a 1926 Marmon. The club is camping at Joe Baker’s in Albion while in the Western New York area.

While in the area, they also made a stop in Caledonia for ice cream, then to Davis Trailer World, where they were treated to a surprise lunch. Their first stop in Batavia was Oliver’s Candies.
