I once had a '52 Buick like that...well, not exactly like that, but you know...
You can post car pics any time, and I'll find them worthy. Loved them.

Attractive series. Indoor lighting nicely handled, too. Like the emphasis on details. The old bikes and that motorized Schwinn--priceless!

Must have been crazy low gas mileage, but gas was cheap then. Thanks for the comment.

Thanks! You are spot on regarding the indoor lighting. Very glarey and in your face when shooting up from a low vantage. Outdoors is much more conducive to favorable lighting and backgrounds.

l got 20 mpg, better than my friends with Ford and Chevy. Had a better heater, too.

FYI......those are called a MotoMeter. The inventor of this device was one Harrison Hurlbert Boyce, a German immigrant who couldn’t help but notice the abundance of engines overheating around him during the 1900’s and 1910’s. Boyce patented those in 1912.

That is very interesting. Thanks for sharing it.
