Pretty Cool Interactive Cutaways allowed me to show my boy how Flatheads, Transmissions and Rear Ends work ...

They even had a steering wheel, dash, pedal and linkage setup with a 3 on the tree, And now he says he'd like to get a vehicle with one !!! Unfortunately I forgot to get a pick of it ... LOL

I was good. Cracker Barrel. The place I wanted to go was closed for the day, replacing the kitchen floor, lol. So we took a safe option.

Great pics. Man cars had such style back then. It also struck me funny after looking at those old cars and you put a picture of a 57 Chevy up. It almost looked weird. It felt out of place. It took a minute of seeing the other post war cars to readjust almost. Thanks for sharing. I saw a few I'd like to have but the one I think I want the most was the truck with the car hauler trailer.

The 57 is in the National Auto and Truck Museum behind the Duesenberg Museum ...

And that Car Hauler was Sweet ...
