Cute-looking chick.
Looks like she was driving either the '65 Bug or the '65 Valiant convertible, and wanted to talk to the red Ghia owner. Both driver doors are open.
Nice '55 Ford wagon there, too. |
Looks to me like the cute looking chick has a beard. |
Ruh-Roh.
You have better eyes or a better monitor than I do!
Still love the cars! Do they have gender? |

That's a Tupolev t104, a very early passenger jet. The runway length needed to land without the chute was a mile give or take. Compare that to a DC-3 that only needed about a third of that distance to land.The Tupolev also had a tendency to stall at low air speed. |

How would you like to be the owner of what I assume is the Fiat 500, and come back to your car finding a car parked so close you can't open your driver side door. |

^ I think the fiat 600 driver would respect the superiority of the borgward driver and know his place

Who knew the Colonel started off with 17 herbs & spices on ham & beef, before settling with chicken?! _________________ .
