Ah The Little Car Show. Dismiss it at your peril. These aren't the high buck (although I'm sure some are pricey) restorations but little cars, fun cars, mostly from bygone eras. Their owners love them as much, or maybe more, that some millionaire collector cares about what's in his (and they are mostly men) warehouse.
So enjoy the pictures and if you're on the Monterey Peninsula for next year's Car Week go see them. It's free so patronize the merchants on Lighthouse Ave, Pacific Grove.

I passed this car, a 1935 Lincoln coupe, on I5 and then there it was on a side street. Even stranger is that it and it's owner are from my town, Tracy, CA. Nice to see the old stuff driven. |
