Experience Asheville’s Charm with Mountaineer Motor Tours
Asheville, North Carolina, a city known for its vibrant arts scene and historic architecture nestled between the Blue Ridge and Smoky mountains, has yet another exciting offering for its visitors. Mountaineer Motor Tours is making exploring the city a unique, fun, and stylish affair with its vintage car tours, promising an experience guests won’t soon forget.
Steering Into the Past with a 1923 Ford Model T
Offering a delightful journey through time and history, Mountaineer Motor Tours invites its patrons to hop in and experience the thrill of a ride in a 1923 Ford Model T touring car. During the tour, guests can soak in the impressive sights of downtown Asheville and explore the quaint, historical neighborhoods on the city’s northern side, led by the expert guidance of the engaging tour guide at the wheel.
A Family Legacy on Wheels
The man behind the wheel, Heath Towson, is not just the owner of the unique touring business, but also an ardent fan of vintage vehicles, a passion he owes to his family. “This has been my entire life that I have been into old cars,” said Towson. His grandfather, father, and even his mother had a profound love for vintage vehicles, inspiring Towson to carry forth this family legacy.
His grandfather, Towson shared, used to drag-race hot rods back in the ‘Golden Age’ of cars down in Florida. Preserving and sharing this deep-rooted family tradition, Towson brings the same energy, passion, and story to his retro-themed Motor Tours, captivating guests with not just the city’s charms but also the allure of the old Ford.
A Celebrity for a Day
The vintage motor tours offer more than just a ride around the city. As Towson drives around Asheville, guests in the old Ford cannot help but attract attention, making them feel like celebrities. “People waving, taking pictures,” Towson said with a smile. It’s not just a tour, but a unique, unforgettable experience that lets visitors live the nostalgia of simpler times and feel like a star of the day.
Grovewood Village Connection
Mountaineer Motor Tours is not just a business for Towson, but an extension of his role as a docent at the renowned Estes-Winn Antique Car Museum in historic Grovewood Village in North Asheville. His deep love for vintage cars and his willingness to share that love with people from all backgrounds truly combine the charm of Asheville with the enchantment of motor history.
