1976 Ferrari 308 GTS. It might be an oldie, but it is still an awesome car.

I thought this looked fun.  1962 Chevy 8 door airport limousine

1959 Chevy Impala hardtop/flattop with an awesome curved back light

1965 Mercer-Cobra Roadster. 

The headlights pop out and rotate forward.

Bet the whole side of the car gets splattered since the fender basically runs from the front to mid door.

What a beauty.

Nice!  Must have sold like a slug right after the ‘29 stick market crash.

Looks like it to me.  What a cool and unique duesy.

Yeah, I think most Duesies, like Rolls Royce or other super high priced cars of the day, we’re sold with just the front end and chassis and the buyer had a custom coachworker create the body.  So, I’m guessing this was the case here, though I don’t really know.

No two Duesenbergs were ever the same. While the frame and drivetrain were shared amongst them, the body work was unique to each and they were built with high tech for the time, Aluminum bodies.

This 1952 Chevrolet 3100 pickup truck reminds me of one owned by my Tio Alfredo (Uncle Fred) when I was young living in Mexico City while he lived in Orizaba, Mexico, when we visited him. He had a foundry shop that he ran with my Grandfather Susano and it was dark blue and he kept it until 1984 when it finally died and wasn't worth fixing.

Those are ALWAYS worth fixing!

I'd love to ride around in this, feeling noble.

Founded in August of 1935 in Butler, Pennsylvania, The Bantam Car Company specialized in the production of small cars and trucks and the reason I put this photo up is because this is the daddy of the World War 2 Jeep which was invented by this company in 1940. This little truck was the basis of the Jeep. Unfortunately for Bantam, they were too small of a company to produce the numbers the US Army needed, and it was forced to give its design to Willis-Overland and to Ford Motor company. They went out of business in 1956 when acquired by Studebaker which later became part of American Motors.
