Spectacular images of an elegant time gone by-

 |
| Rita Hayworth: 1941 Lincoln Continental |
 |

 |
| Errol Flynn: 1935 Auburn Speedster |
 |
| Joan Crawford: 1938 Lincoln Model K |
 |
| Jean Harlow: 1934 Cadillac Split Limo |
 |
| Frank Sinatra: 1955 Ford Thunderbird |

The Gipper famously campaigned for CA Governor in a
1965 Mustang Convertible, now on display at the Reagan Library... |

HERE is a photo essay about Dean Martin's cars.
Thanks AoW... I remember he had one of those Stutz Bearcats in the early 70s, so did SD Jr
Great car, Mr. Gable. Hence, "It's a real Doozy".

How I wish we still made cool cars, and not boxes with wheels.
Dodge Challenger isn't exactly chopped liver Trestin, Mustang neither- but for all their capabilities, they're kind of a parody of themselves
What would Clark Gable say today if they told him his car put out too many emissions?
"Quite frankly Gore, I don't give a damn."
Okay, that was bad, I apologize :)
Wrong Madhat... that was classic~
Great post RR. Really enjoyed it. Clint Eastwood looks bigger than life next to his Ferrari.
