A friend let me in on a little tidbit that is my new addiction, it is called Only vintage photos of cars, trucks and motorcycles from the 40s 50s and 60s.  I know some don't like Facebook I get it but this rocks on so many levels. Here is a small bit of the pictures posted to this site. Takes me to a different time.

Yep, those ladies were so cute I married one. My first car was a '48 Dodge, similar to the convertible picture with the gal sitting on it except mine was a 4-door. The first car I remember dad having was a '34 Ford, when he remarried after my mother died of cancer, his new wife had a '48 Pontiac. Didn't care much for it, mostly because I didn't care much for her. Was a different time both during and following WWII, things moved at a slower pace. The small town we lived in(500 pop.) closed all the shops on Sunday except for the gas stations and restaurants. We had two of each and they alternated staying open on Sundays, the restaurants opened only for the noon meal and the gas stations from around 9:00am to about 2:00pm. Even the local theater was closed on Sunday which left the town without any entertainment. We had larger families back then!  ;)

Stopping in Newport Tenn. June 15 for the moonshine car show pre 1958. This is a great show to see cars that nobody does anymore. Wife and I went to the 30th annual show, over 400 cars that year.

I would love a earlier specific show like this and I just might be able to make this.  :o
