My cousin sent me this link.

Wow! Lots of cool old stuff there, Indi. Clearly not a great environment for photography, but what a fantastic collection of old cars!
Thanks for posting!
(I think my favorite is the 1st Crown Vic)

My first car, which I never had on the road, was a '54 Ford rattletrap.
The one I like is the original Corvette. Is that a '54?

Indi: Cool web site of some very cool older cars. The 2 Corvette pics...that is not a '54 or a '53, which was the first year of Corvette production. That's a retro kit installed on a newer vette...I'm not sure, but I think it's about a 2003. I guess the idea was to combine the comfort and amenities of the newer vette with the classic look of the '53. Anyway, I'm sure it was big $$$.

What in the heck is a '54 Ford rattletrap??

It's the model just ahead of the '54 Ford Rust Bucket.

Y'know, I thought that 'vette looked a little weird. I didn't even notice the mirrors. The rear end looks right except for the convertible deck panel, but the front headlights looked the strangest.

The wheels are from a newer vette and the four exhaust pipes in pic 2, also, are not from the 50's.

Right. The more I look the more I see the differences.
I had an original '67 Camaro RS convertible, ordered in November of 66. AM radio, no power windows, seats or AC. If I had the money I'd probably get one built like that 'vette. All the amenities with the original or near original styling.
