Not our car, ours is sitting in my garage. The car hit was a 1940 pickup truck. Same color red though.

It was a '42; makes it even worse. Can't be many war cars left.
That's what the first reports said, but I would recognize the bottom of that motor anywhere. Could probably assemble one with my eyes closed. It was a freshly restored '42 Lincoln.

Severely mangled classics:
The only Ford in my life [[all Chevy family), 23 +vehicles, was a 63 wagon.
Pulled into a warm shop with key, that vehicle saw a little bit of action.

Out of the the crap that is on cable I like gas monkey the best.
Even though the guy in kounts kustoms apparintly grew up in Royal Oak. Creds to Woodward. But I hate the seconds devoted to the acual work done per episode.
Gas monkey shows the acual hands on crap that has to be done to a classic.
Lots of money being thrown at some of these cars. I'll take an original flathead Ford any day.Out of the the crap that is on cable I like gas monkey the best.

What happened to the detyes guy from Bay City who had the 32 A model with a flat head rat rod?
I would like to follow him.
If you really want to know about classic cars you should take the time to meet Terry Ernest, a friend of mine from my days of owning a photo lab in Corvallis, OR. Yes, I'm an ex-East Detroiter who moved to Nyack, NY first and photographed classics for Vintage Cars of Nyack for a while, then moved to Oregon so it was interesting to run into Terry who lives in Port Huron and is President of the National Association of Automobiles and is a fellow photo lab owner himself [[our connection). Terry owns a number of classics himself. Visiting my dad a few years back I thought he'd enjoy a visit to see some of Terry's cars also so I took him up. We had a great time. Here's the link to the association Terry is President of- NAAM. He also heads up the Wills Sainte Claire Automobile Museum in Marysville. Here's a few of his cars-
He also had a 1924 American LaFrance Fire Engine which was funny in that to include his wife in 'period' parades he had to have her in a Dalmatian costume!
The Pierce Arrow and other pre war cars like the Packard were just sexy cars,like a work of art ,hands down.
The red Pierce photo reminds me of the first day I worked in a body shop,no experience and the shop owner handed me a bar of lead and a torch and said go fill those dents in that Pierce sitting over there.I recently sold a crate of Pierce parts that I found in the dump,quite pricey these days.
