Cars and ? / Your Contributions are Welcome!
« on: October 24, 2011, 04:50:48 AM »
In this thread, pictures of automobiles juxtaposed with other modes of transportation. In this first grouping, trains, planes, and boats.

If you would like to add some of your own, pictures should be from before 1980.

Cool thread idea, Otto!

While the Chevy is pre-1980, I suspect the picture is a bit newer than that ;)
