Agree with early morning tours to breakfast, cozy wings full around if available, car covers or tonneau and wet headbands, but also learned that something like a bikini top helps to keep sun off of my head. Makess it seems cooler when driving my roadster in nearly 100 degree heat. Auxiliary fan helps engine in traffic. And a second car with top and cozy wings is a benefit too. ... View more

Enjoyed all of the stories. Thought that we were smart to secure my VW in locked father-in-laws garage. The switch as referred to in the article. Changed clothes and went to jump into the VW and speed away without incident, only to find the interior filled with balloons. We were finding and removing balloons for a month after the wedding. Great memories as a reall of the stories in the article. Thanks. ... View more

Some great ads. Volkswagen has so many in 60s and 70s from BB&D or BBD&O including "Think Small". My favorite was picture of VW micro bus with 8 Nuns getting inside. Only text was "Mass Transit". Another article for classic advertising might be for auto parts suppliers, however many of the best probably would not be politically correct today. ... View more

I could not live without my truck. Find new needs daily. Even better economy than new is buying a used 4x4. Some maintenance is needed, but anyone who carries lots of stuff (kayaks to tools and car parts to pick-ups for our local food pantry) can gain great economy. My F150 XL was 4 years old lease return with 100M miles. Cost was only 25% of new. Since I don't put on a lot of miles, it will last a lot of years. Plus it came with work box and tailgate step big extras on new trucks. ... View more

Love to see the list of pop-up headlights. 1958 - 1961 Austin Healey Sprite was planned to have hideaway headlights, but cost cutting modified them to be fixed in up position and created one of the most iconic designs of the era. Mine always elicits smiles where ever we go. ... View more

I was an 8 yr old in my Davy Crockett T-shirt who attended the public opening with my parents. Autopia was my favorite ride and it probably stared my love affair with sports cars. Biggest thrill of the day was my Father taking a picture of Walt Disney and me. He is leaning over with his arm around my shoulders. He was trying to get the Dumbo ride running. He became my lifelong hero that day. He always was willing to invest everything he had to achieve his goals.  ... View more
