Back in 1967, when I was an 11 year old kid, some of my favorite car magazines were Motor Trend and Car and Driver and one car I wished I could drive/own was the 1967 Plymouth Barracuda. Oh well, I've never even driven one.  :P

The 1949 Ford Tudor was the first post-World War 2 Ford with completely new style and technology.  :)

This little car was in Vienna, Austria, but I don't know which one it is. This is from 12 years ago. ??? ::)

I remember its horn would go "Meep Meep" when you used it just like the Luney Toons Roadrunner character. I love that character, and the car brings great memories.  :)

I apologize in advance if I post duplicate pictures in any of the picture threads I deal in.  My MO in getting pictures of one girl is to rip her Instagram.  That ends up with me having up to 2000 pics of her.  I've tried almost half a dozen duplicate finder programs, and none of them find all of the duplicates I inevitably end up with.

Back in 1964, I got to see my first James Bond movie, Goldfinger, starring the best of all James Bond characters, Sean Connery, and I was almost 8 years old when I saw it. It had two great cars in the movie, a 1964 Mustang but the real star was the Aston Martin DB5 which had a passenger seat that launched anyone trying to capture James Bond, a machine gun at the headlights, and an oil slick to make pursuing vehicles skid and crash. It was a great car.  :)

  That little car is a Fiat 500 ( early 'next gen' )..... Don't know if you have the current version in the U.S. ?? It's a major competitor to the current 'Mini' .

Years ago, my father told me that one of the favorite cars that he wanted when he was a boy back in the 1930's was a Duesenberg. Of course, his family couldn't afford it.  :)

Back in the 1970's, when Roger Moore was James Bond 007, this model of Rolls Royce was popular to see in some of the movies being driven by the elite. The real elite at the time also drove Rolls Royce vehicles.  :)
