2024 Thursday Door & Monday Window #14

This is my Fourteenth installment of my combination of Thursday Doors & Monday Window featuring Antique Automobiles.

My dad loved cars shows, history, and anything to do with FORD. He started working for a FORD dealership while in high school in Great Falls, South Carolina. He worked there until he joined the United States Navy in 1948. After leaving the Navy, he again went to work for a FORD dealership. This time he worked of Pearson Ford in San Diego, California and continued working for FORD until he retired.

 This week I’ll be showing five Automobiles from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Indianapolis, Indiana.

2024 Thursday Door & Monday Window #13

This is my Thirteenth installment of my combination of Thursday Doors & Monday Window featuring Antique Automobiles.

My dad loved cars shows, history, and anything to do with FORD. He started working for a FORD dealership while in high school in Great Falls, South Carolina. He worked there until he joined the United States Navy in 1948. After leaving the Navy, he again went to work for a FORD dealership. This time he worked of Pearson Ford in San Diego, California and continued working for FORD until he retired.

This week we are continuing with Antique Automobiles from the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation with four Antique Automobiles from 1903 – 1952. Displaying the Antique Automobiles from most recent to oldest.

1952 Hudson Hornet
1940 Chrysler Crown Imperial

An interesting fact about this 1940 Chrysler Crown Imperial is that it was an Official Parade Car which carried VIPs through New York City for almost 20 years.

It carried more than a hundred dignitaries including politicians, military leaders, diplomats. They rode in the car in ticker-tape parades through Manhattan’s famed “Canyon of Heroes.” Dwight D. Eisenhower, Ralph Bunche, Winston Churchill and A. Philip Randolph were just some of the parade car’s many distinguished passengers.

1938 Lincoln Model K
1903 Packard Model F “Old Pacific”

This 1903 Packard Model F is known as “Old Pacific.” In 1903 it became the second car to cross the United States.

Hope you enjoyed seeing the Antique Automobiles from the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation. Next week I’ll be showing Automobiles from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Indianapolis, Indiana. Till next time, stay safe. Stay Strong. Stay Enthusiastic and Stay Positive.
