Cars, the Old Stuff

I like old cars, trucks, motor scooters, motorcycles, and just about anything that is old and has wheels. I also travel a lot and take pictures. Here are some old cars and such that I have seen. At last count there were over 100, but they are posted in a convenient scroll-down form so that you can see them quickly. If you can help with the identification, just click comments and tell me what it is, or your related experiences. Click archives for more pictures. Howard

1941 Lincoln-Zephyr 4 door

1941 Lincoln-Zephyr 4 door, a photo by carphoto on Flickr.

I am not making this up.
I drove a car exactly like this when I was in high school. We got it when it was nine years old, but still beautiful. My father drove a company car, so I drove the Lincoln to school.

1953 Allstate

1953 Allstate, a photo by Howard33 on Flickr.

This scooter has been restored for ten or twelve years, but when I entered it in the SECC Spring scooter show. It won first place in class.

I had not planned to enter the show, and just brought the Allstate to ride, but one of the club officers came by and said they needed some more scooters to judge. And the rest, they say, is history . . .

It's a Packard. You can tell it isn't an elephant because the trunk is in the back.

Old and new. These cars were waiting to join the homecoming parade at Middle Tennessee State University. I graduated there in 1958.

This is probably a 1948 model, but I'm not sure. It was in flawless condition. The picture was taken in Bedford, Massachusetts.

I found this on Flickr. It must be in a museum somewhere. I guess it must be a forerunner of the Volkswagen.
