Cars and Stuff
This was an interesting exhibit at the Studebaker Museum.
Miss. Piggy cracks me up.
It's really kind of an ugly car.
I was 13 when that model car (unaltered) was sold. At that time and for several years after, I could identify most of the cars on the road. Now I have no clue! All I know is when I look at a car and think "I like that one" it's usually a Lexus. At least I have good taste. The car I drive is a Chevy Impala about 5 years old, but without many miles on it. My mother picked it out for herself, but she quit driving soon after that. It's a boring tan color. Did you notice that most of the cars on the road now are boring tan? I consider them non-colors. If I were to buy a new car, I would want a pretty blue color. Maybe someday, but not any time soon. I'll probably be too old to drive by the time that happens, and I'll have to have my grand-daughters drive me around. That won't be all bad.

I like blue cars too!
I need to go visit that museum! It's close enough that I should have already.
Dad used to drive an Edsel. One day after it had quit running and weeds were growing around it someone came around and wanted to buy it to restore it. Now I wish he would have kept it. 
I Think that model came out in the late 40's to early 50's....I remember seeing them at a very young age....
Around here, I don't see much of that tan color....We have a rainbow of colors in our part of the world, lol!! Reds, blues, greens, yellows, and a new color has started showing itself....Amber (I need to get used to this color, lol) A couple of years, or so, ago Dodge came out with a beautiful shade of blue, that I'd just love to have, for the next car we buy....But like you, we just might be too old, by the time we need to buy another.....
