A couple more from the Packard and Studebaker museum:

My dad was a big Studebaker fan, and drove one similar to that red one back in the day...

Pretty rare '54 Buick Skylark:

The guide commented that this model was particularly big with returning servicemen as the fighter plane styling cues were exactly what they wanted - then matched by the Austin model featured earlier.

Ah - my dad was one of those "returning servicemen". But I don't recall him mentioning the aircraft-like appearance of those cars to me. He owned a few other later model Stude's - a Golden Hawk among them.

This one was taken in 2010, with my K20D and FA31 Ltd

Odd. Image privacy was set to Public on Flickr. I've reset the link, so hopefully it works now. Thanks for the heads-up.

Thanks, Steve. The 31 can make just about anything look good, but I've long had a soft spot for the old Deux Chevaux.

Not your everyday motorcycle, a 1928 Henderson Excelsior.

My bil's mother calls hers Bugsy - black over gray RHD. Nice!

I'm not much on 80-90's Camaros, but I have to admit this one caught my eye

Thank you. They're slow, noisy, amazingly comfortable and have character in spades.

That third picture (green mascot) is a very artistic rendition.
