I love the real old ones, with running boards, and hood ornaments.
When I was about 6 years old, Daddy would come home from work, turn the old Pontiac into the driveway and stop until my friend and I would climb onto the running board. Then he would drive VERY slowly the length of the drive as we held on. Always remember the Indian head hood ornament on that one.
Thank you James for pointing that out! The license plate read 1953!
It was a little late for me last night, I think I should've been asleep instead of posting!
A friend came by recently to collect me in her vintage red Chevy pickup truck. I have a slight case of amaxodophobia (fear of riding in a car), so was chagrined to learn that vintage cars (those made before seat belts were mandatory) are exempt from that law. No seat belt—and no shock absorbers to speak of either! Even given all that, still kind of a fun ride.
