I went to the EAA AirVenture last week to hang out with some large, clunky birds.

I see your 41 Ford and raise you a 61 F100 Unibody Custom.





And a 1927 Buick Country Club Coupe.



With wood wheels.



And a hood ornament.

Towboat with barges passing. Illinois River, at the riverfront park, Havana, Illinois.










Incidentally, there's a song about working on an Illinois River towboat. Here, sung (and accompanied on fiddle) by it's author, John Hartford, who had actual experience piloting steer-wheeler boats on the Illinois and Mississippi, and who surely spent some hours chewing the fat with bargeworkers:

I meant to type "stern-wheeler," not "steer-wheeler" in my previous message.
