A '40 Ford truck in front of a place of business, I think "Dave's Garage" waas painted on the other side of it.
Our spot in Grimes, Iowa, a suburb of Des Moines, a place called Cutty's.
Below, Cary stands in front of the Speedway Race Museum, a 3-story museum that took over 3 hours to tour--worth every minute!
This one is actually a clone of the actual car. The driver, Tiny Lund, didn't make payments on it, so it was repossessed.
You can only see part of the 1007 lunchboxes on display!
This pedal car was made for the little boy in the picture. Eventually it went up the family attic, found after the boy's mom died. The glass was still in original condition. I am not sure how it got in the museum.
Probably close to one thousand pedal cars in the museum...the unrestored ones are on a different level.
Each of these record albums is here because they have car sounds on them!
Created by one of the Poseys--may be called an Excaliber.
An Italian car, designed in France, and the name escapes me but it starts with a B and ends with an i! It took ten years to build, weighs 6000 pounds, the hood ornament is crystal and cost $20,000! It also has dispensers for hot and cold water inside.
This Tucker was one of three used in the movie starring Jeff Bridges. I believe it is number 24 out of the 51 made.
There were so many stories and so many vehicles, wish I could remember more.
