Cruisin' the Grand: Escondido, CA, August 10, 2012







H folks -- Friday night in Escondido, visiting Lisa and Tony for a few short hours. The downtown cruise-in is always a treat, even on an extra warm evening.  The top photos are of a 1956 Plymouth Fury, and you can tell the fins are getting bigger as designer Virgil Exner's influence at Chrysler was on the rise.  Note the 45 rpm record player, an option that year and extremely rare.  The other car featured is a 1953 Glaspar,  a very rare and remarkable vehicle of the period.  I had never seen one until last night.
