                                Cars line up waiting to enter Skip's on a sultry summer day


Watching cars enter is like standing in a bygone era


I'd say that classic Thunderbird is at least 20 years older than the driver                    


My Uncle Arthur's favorite — a tank-like Hudson


                                                        "Woodies" were a true art form


Everything from Mustangs to "T-Buckets"


This type of vehicle is known as a "T-Bucket," based on the Model T Ford                   


It'll go a lot faster than anything Henry ever dreamed of


                                                                           Now I ask you...

A couple more Model T-based hotties                                               


I love this Shelby Cobra


                                                                        Powered by Ford


The Cobra's cockpit


I have no expertise in the following racing cars, but my friend Dick at Cruisntimes

A line-up of 21st Century Thunderbirds


Nice custom job — began life as a Ford, circa 1949-51                                 


A 1946-48 Ford — they look pretty much alike


 
Automatic transmission, not original — Ford didn't get a factory-installed automatic until 1950
