Nice! What is it?

I'm sure someone more knowledgeable than I could will correct me but I'd say a 1930's Ford. Loads of vintage cars at Bonneville for Speed Week - a great day out!

Does the salt from the flats not damage these fine vehicles?

Without a really good clean the answer would most definitely be a yes.

I take my car through the car wash a couple of times afterwards, and also make sure to hose off underneath. The salt is actually really sticky stuff, but seems able to get into every nook and cranny.

I have an Jaguar Convertible - but she does not go on the salt...

Thought this might be the case... that's why I'm surprised to see so many "pride & joys" there.
