A Hankering For . . . Classic Cars

 

 

I have a slightly new obsession with vintage cars. 

 

It's a dream obsession really.

 

Can't tell you how it happened, I'm not much of a car person.

 

Maybe it's from watching too many re-runs of Mad Men, or perhaps it's just an extension of my love of so many different types of vintage items.

 

Whatever the reason, I'm hook. 

I've even gone so far as to drag hubby and the kids to the local community park during a Classic Car Show.  I have a feeling it's an obsession that isn't going away anytime soon.

 

And why should it? 

 

Who wouldn't want to zip on over to the local gas station for a gallon of milk driving one of these . . . .

Or how about letting the kids pile into this 1956 Wagon and take them all on a picnic to the beach. . .

Oh, but this beauty is just begging for a road trip . . . .

Now I'm not sure how I feel about this pink car. 

Other than I've never seen such a tough looking pink in all my life! 

I'm just not sure it's "me" . . .

I think perhaps I should stick with something more in my groove like this red and white beauty!

Looks like it has plenty of room for the me and the kids.

And speaking of my groove, and all things "me",  can't get more like myself than loving something like this  . . . .

But then again, maybe Vintage Campers shouldn't be in a "Hankering" category all by themselves!

 

Have a great day,
