I don't visit here to often, I'm rather surprise that there is no drop down menu for classic cars. 
Any whooooo 
On my trip back from the AMPS International show, I stop by the Auburn, Cord, Dusenberg Museum down the road apiece from where the AMPS show was held. They have some beautifully restored classics there.
I posted 685 photos of these classics at my smugmug gallery.

Beautiful beautiful cars. The Dussies in particular. They have always been among my absolute favorit cars.
The museum is on my list of things to see, if I ever get to go to the US. Now I have kind of been there

I can remember 30 years ago going to the local VA hospitol with my dad to a huge car show they had there every summer and seeing the same vintage makes and models.  Those pic's brought back some very fond memories of a happy time.  Thanks a million Dave for taking the time to post those here.

Thanks dave...it's nice to see those. You just don't see those on the road anymore these days, but for what they cost, I suppose I'd be leary too!
The craftsmanship they put into those old girls just isn't found now a days and ferrari is the only company I know of who still hand builds cars{may be wrong there though - Morgan?}. The long clean lines and tons of chrome and lil ornamantation everywhere is a thing of the past sadly.
Thanks for sharing!
...it's be nice to do a camapign of just the old classics but there aren't very many models kits available to choose from.......
