In my effort to catch up and post shots of cars that have yet to be published from last season, here are the final cars from the show at the Hamilton County Fairgrounds. Among this group is a Nova, a Trans Am, a couple of Super Bees owned by a married couple, a Cyclone, a Jeep and a hot rod.

Forgotten Muscle Cars

I found this on line and thought I would share. It is one site's idea of 10 forgotten muscle cars. I hadn't forgotten any of them. http://www.cheatsheet.com/automobiles/10-forgotten-muscle-cars-that-deserve-to-be-restored.html/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=cpc

More 50s Magic From Glendale

Today I'm posting more of the great cars from the 1950s that were on display at this past year's fantastic Historic Glendale Collector Car Show. This is one of those shows to not miss because take a look at some of the rides that were on display. Included in this batch is a batch of Bel Air, including some early 50s models and a rare Nomad wagon. Also a couple of hot looking Thunderbirds glistened in the bright sun.

The Evolution of the Batmobile

I was just sent a fun little bit of animation that covers the evolution of the Batmobile from the beginnings on television to the more recent movies. Check it out: https://www.selectcarleasing.co.uk/news/the-batmobile.html.

One of the actual cars as well as some others from the movies (and other cool TV and movie cars) are on display in Auburn, IN at the Kruse Museum: http://turnerbudds-carblog.blogspot.com/2016/02/movie-and-television-cars-at-kruse.html.

There were also a few of the cars on display at the KOI Cavalcade of Customs a couple of years back and those are the cars I have in this post.


50s Classics At Glendale

The Historic Glendale Collector Car Show had so many brilliant rides on display. Today and tomorrow I'm going to be looking at those from the 1950s. Included in that group was a number of good looking Bel Airs as well as a vintage Thunderbird and a Studebaker pick-up truck.
