These all look so nice, 77 years later compared to examples you can find now that need restored.

That Airflow really stands out.

Car in front is an Auburn, not too common. The 33-34 Ford Victoria with its door open, directly above the “Graham” sign, pushes my buttons.

Which one is that? I’m better at old planes than old cars.

It is. And I appreciate that. One reason I go out of my way to link to the source. They’re doing great work.

They just don’t make ‘em like they used to.

And I do mean it sarcastically, because look at all these cars. The bodies are mostly in great shape, so I reckon the internals have all crapped out. Nowadays 100k miles is nothing, but I’d be surprised if many cars in this picture had nearly that many.

1934 Desoto Airflow

I believe the Desoto marque was between Chrysler and Plymouth.
