More stylized automotive design beauty. Old vehicles very striking in their lines and trim. Thanks for sharing.

Question: Do any of these cars offer a hand crank for starting the motor? I remember my father using a hand crank for this purpose.

Beauties. Nice shooting, KT.
Brings backmemories, my very first personally owned car was a 1940 black Ford 2-door sedan. Became an expert in replacing the bendix spring on the starter!

Great set, and it's a vintage year that takes me back in time. In 1964, I bought my first car which was a 1941 two-door Oldsmobile Hydrmatic Series 66 with a flat head six-cylinder and an oil-bath air filter. It had less than 50,000 miles with the original spare tire and owner's manual. Spotless paint and dent-free in every detail. It was like driving a cruise ship down the road and the manual steering and drum breaks quickly made a man out of me building muscles in my arms and right leg. I really wish that I had it yet today.

By 1929 most cars were equipped with an electric starter. However, many still had the option of a hand crank well into the fifties, but those were mostly foreign cars and some trucks.

#4 The Cadi Convertible is my pick of the bunch......rare to see two separate spare tire assys. on opposite running boards. Lovely condition and a definite Driver all around.
