Hi folks -- finally the long winter is over and we had a Friday night without rain! And the cars came out, but the hundreds, although with grandpas and grandmas, young children, and 60 year- old geezers like me. It was warm and brilliantly sunny, a perfect evening for a top down ride as well. I only have a few photos to share this time around, but more will be posted with each successive week.
This is an event that has no class, age, race, or gender, barriers -- as all who attend have one interest, namely a love affair with the automobile.
This blog will expand on themes and topics first mentioned in my book, "The Automobile and American Life." I hope to comment on recent developments in the automobile industry, reviews of my readings on the history of the automobile, drafts of my new work, contributions from friends, descriptions of the museums and car shows I attend and anything else relevant.
