Note the stacks under the hood.

I think the interior treatment is particularly impressive. Woman’s husband built it for her. Lesson: beware stereotyping because the driver of this car was a) a woman and b) likely some kids’ grandmother.

Logan, Utah

The brass knuckle shifter is a nice touch.

I think most people who drive anything from the 60s is most likely someone’s grand parent, not the exception. And I’ve been to plenty of car shows where granny has just as badass of a ride as gramps.

Honestly, people looked at me weird when I had my 71 Nova because I WASN’T 100 years old.....

Interesting. I went inside the store to buy a soda and asked the dude checking out if it was his car because bias and he pointed to the 50-something lady who looked less sporty than her car and like she’d just as soon not have another conversation about her car.
