Isn't great how old cars and old soda machines just kind of go together. Like a coke and a hot dog.

Lets continue to keep the hobby alive.

My passion for old hot rod cars led me to restoring old gas pumps, air meters, cans, etc and that led to soda machines and coolers.  As I like to say, the garage is now too small and Sherri replies that there is too much "junk" in it.  But it's real nice junk honey.

Here's mine, I bought it for $50 in 1958 when I was a senior in high school.  It's the first car I ever owned and I have had it ever since.  Started frame off restoration in 2004.

I don't have an old car but I have many favorites that I would love to have.  Top of the list would be an Auburn 851 Boat-tail Speedster or a Cord 810.  These cars exemplify a time when autobody design had no limits.  They just don't bend steel like that anymore and sadly, never will!

The best mascot (aka hood ornament) ever to adorn an automobile is the Lincoln Greyhound used on the Lincoln's of the late 20's and through the 30's.  Designed by the silversmiths at Gorham in 1925, it is a work of art all by itself!  You just don't see details like this on cars today.  All the imagination, creativity and flair that the auto designers used to have has given way to aerodynamics and fuel economy.
