I wasn't criticizing any particular era car, any car of any era that appeals to the reader should be fair game to post. I like them all. Just that the preponderance up until recently has been after wwII.

Love that Vicky!

These 49-52s are some of my favorites (ok,53/54s too)

**special-K** · 02-01-2013, 07:46 AM

Did I ever tell you...?

**special-K** · 02-01-2013, 07:49 AM

I dunno. They just are:

GRX · 02-01-2013, 12:17 PM

Great stuff Special-K. Thanks for sharing. That '67 Pontiac Bonneville is nice. Always liked the look of the half & half front clip.

I'll take a look at my collection and see what more I can post here.

Madtat · 02-01-2013, 07:43 PM

Looking forward to more. Yeah,those big Pontiacs are awesome. The '67 Grand Prixs are a favorite big boat of mine. The personal luxury segment went to a retro super car thing to emulate the era of Stutz,Auburn,Packard,Pierce Arrow,etc

Here is a Chevelle I saw at a local car show. The owners chopped up a rusty 4-door and made a drag car out of it.

Agreed. Pontiac 8 lug rims ...

**special-K** · 02-03-2013, 01:27 PM

They are the coolest wheels

Some of the best...

bollybib · 02-03-2013, 03:20 PM

I've always been partial to the 62 split grille and the cool curved taillights.

Looks like an original '67 engine with the A.I.R. port across the head. Probably 670's.

bollybib · 02-04-2013, 09:56 PM

I'm drifting into the concours area but I've always been impressed by the overwhelming presence of 1930s luxury automobiles, both American and foreign.
