Car guy or not, you have to love the passion that goes into these cars! Awesome!!!!!

**special-K** · 10-12-2012, 07:27 AM

It's all art whether you like them or not. A thing I like about them is they are such time capsules. They capture an era gone by. For me they show how it was in the late '50s-early '60s as much as anything else. I was a kid and they sure were fascinating to me.

PAWS 72 · 10-17-2012, 02:46 AM

**oldwagon** · 10-17-2012, 06:44 AM

Born and raised in Wellington, Ks., I sure enjoy looking at that Buick from Dodge City. I noticed it was done in Wichita. If Starbird had been around then, I think some of these cars would have shown up there.
