Now which fair housed the FORD pavilion where every group got to sit in a different Ford car that was carried through the diorama? I remember we got a Lincoln Continental...nice.

Was that NY or EXPO (Montreal?)

I believe it was the "Hall of Presidents"


The story/history is that once the World's Fair was over this exhibit along with "It's a Small World" and the GE Carousel of Progress were dismantled and moved down to Disney World in Florida (which was under construction at the time) where they were updated and set up again.

I also remember the ferris wheel shaped like a large tire sponsored by BR Goodrich.
