I'll start with the coolest car I saw. This is a completely restored DKW. I forgot to check the year, but I'm going to guess mid to late 50's. When it started this car was just the body and it was in pretty rough shape. It's nice to see someone bring a car back from the brink.
I like this next one because it's a convertible truck. It's the only one that I have ever seen.
I'm just a sucker for small cars.
Notice the cool old a/c unit on the next car. As far as I know you just stuff this thing with ice and the air is forced through it into the cabin.

I second the 'meh.' I'm actually pretty excited about the 25 cents worth of 70s motorcycle mags I got though. Throw in a Jumbo lemonade and you've got yourself a day.
Yeah I was so burnt out from Saturday that I couldn't even bring myself to go on Sunday. However you managed to call out my to faves as well (excepting my own Packard of course) the DKW (one of the Audi/Auto Union rings) and the Austin (the dude said it was 1 of 4 or 5 in the country and he brought it in from Canada). So yeah, I think I'm done with Back To the 50's for a bit. Its mostly the same shit every year. When I was trying to tell Becky where the Packard was parked I actually found myself saying "We're parked next to a red '57 Chevy." How futile was that!?! I wish they'd get more exotics and foreign cars just to spice things up. Maybe set aside some space specifically for that pursuit.
