My favorite, and one of the few from the '50s. It was parked in front of the paddle courts and not with the others on the street. Not sure why. The club has been around since the 1890's so I bet in the '50s this car and similar models were actually in the parking lot as simple transportation- not part of a car show. I can just imagine elegant housewives driving over to the club for bridge...
Not sure what this is. Anyone know?
Wish I could have gotten a pic of this orange one from the front. Very cool.
I spoke with the owner of this '61 Mercedes. He and his wife actually drive it every weekend during the summer. He likes to enjoy his car, not just look at it. I agree!
I hope everyone is having a happy Sunday. As you can see it's beautiful weather here. I wish I could go out and enjoy it more but I've got a lot of laundry. Travel soccer will do that to a mom. ;)

Very cool cars, Sarah! My husband loves the old cars. Could that red one be a Rolls Royce or a Bentley, maybe? But if it was I think it would have some sort of hood ornament.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same thing but I don't know if hood ornaments were as common back then. I wish I could have poked around more or found the owner to ask!
