I took a young work colleague for a drive once and as we parked the car and were locking it up she enquired why I didn't put central locking in it.
I can't think of a more difficult thing to try to add to a '34 Ford.

Have not seen the one with the bars. Dig it.


Car seats have evolved a bit. I just thought my mom using her arm straight out when stopping quick and pushing me into the seat was enough. Somehow I lived, but I chalk that up to some luck too.

I have several American flags always flying and military magnet stickers as well. Also 2, count 'em, two mag. compasses. One to tell where I heading and the other to show where I been was. Did mention the water cooler on the window.

My coolest on the trunk rack of my '30 Model A, is a gas powered marguerite blender and a beer refrig and dispenser.
my '39 pickup has a sliding back window: a factory accessory since 1935.

I fly an American flag outside my house every day. I don't have kooky flags with ar's or people over them. Just a real American flag.



A modern accessory I have on my 38 is a mitchell OD

Used to be lots of neat stuff to personalize your car; father-in-law bought this one and flipped it soon in olden times.

The Louis V material is genuine and I built the trunk around the dimensions of the material.

Johndee I love your accessories. The lay down v8 one is one on
My list of wants. Some years ago at the LA roadster show I came across Bob Drake talking to someone & he had a handful of them all slightly different.
