  1. Neat. And when they hid the radiator we had hood ornaments. I miss them both.

    1. That's what made the cars so special back then. Class and style - sue beats the plastic gas caps we have today.

  2. True art. Now we're stuck with plastic. When, I ask, did our country lose its class.

    1. I'm afraid it ended when we stopped making everything ourselves. Cheap imports and a global, political economy. The oceans on either side didn't save us - it opened the floodgates..
