Jodi Desautels Shares a Part of her Visit to the Antique Car Show

     Hello everyone.  This weekend, my husband and I went to an antique car show at a local fairground.  We had a wonderful time and met some very nice people.  We enjoyed ourselves greatly.  Both of us enjoy old vehicles and nice people.
     There were many, many old vehicles.  The restriction for the show is that the cars must be at least 30 years old.  Most of them seemed to be from the 50's and 60's.  However, there were some even older.  
     My husband and I both enjoyed the old woody pictured above.  No, I am not old enough to remember them on the road.  Yet, I have seen movies and television shows that feature them.  Also, I took two years of auto mechanics and we looked at the old vehicles quite a bit in class.

     These wonderful old cars were easier to work on and easier to learn the mechanical ins and outs of a vehicle.  Why?  These old cars didn't have as many parts.  Things weren't computerized and there was more room in the older cars to work, such as in this old Camaro.
     I think the man who owns this trailer told it the best.  Things may have been tough in the 50's, but it is a nice time to enjoy now.  Take a look at some of the writing and messages on this old trailer.  "Lost in the Fifty's" is what caught my eye.  What catches yours?
