Tell us, which of these cars would YOU take?

Drove out to The Raleigh Classic car show Friday on lunchbreak; wow,
a life-changing experience, had to share pics - Sorry I couldn't note
makes/models; clicked pics till the batteries died, this is just a fraction.

(Been off the board awhile, high dayjob & class load - semester almost done,
final presentation on strokes & rehab Tuesday night - to those
of you I said I'd be sending you stuff, I haven't forgotten, you're on
my list for Christmas!)

Swoon!

What a great show! Thanks for posting pics.

We have several cars at the moment, my boyfriend has a 32 ford 5 window coupe and he's working on a 53 ford for me to drive. He also has a 53 Willys Aero Coupe that needs TLC. I would post some pics but not sure how yet.

I love this Studebaker Commander. I see it has TN tags on it may not be far from home:) . I really like these two-tone paint jobs. My Desoto was about the same color of light green. I was going to change it to a Royal Maroon but now I think I may stick to the green and do the dark green top. Thanks for the photos sometimes it really helps to see the color before ruling it out. The Desoto's been in prime so long (15 years) that I forgot what the green looked like.

Regards,
J.S.

Ya gotta love those cars. :D
I love the colors they used to come in, even the not so colorful gray paint jobs look great!
Maybe I will go to our local museum tomorrow and get some pics. I'm inspired. Over 300 cars there and some are quite rare.
