Okay, I confess. I barely crept over the border into Pasadena again to take this picture. It's the exact same spot where another amazing automobile was parked earlier in the month. Is this a secret portal to vintage car heaven?
What make of car is this? I don't know much about old cars but this one is so streamlined and like Judy says, "futuristic." I think you HAVE stumbled into, "vintage car heaven."
This one's a charmer!!! I'd love to ride in that to a Hollywood movie premier!!! Of course, in art deco style silks and furs with TheChief in a top hat and tails!!! (Heh, heh, heh...in my dreams!!!)
This is the same man who has the red and black one you posted a while back. According to a friend of mine whose property backs onto his, he works well into the night keeping both these beauties in shape!
In December of 2007, after many years on the west side of Los Angeles (and at least a third of those years spent stuck in traffic on Pico Boulevard) my family settled into a happy little house in South Pasadena.

Wow - this is so sleek and "futuristic" for the time. This whole genre of cars just evokes old movies for me. I love the color.
I'm not much for cars, but even I think this one is yum yum.

That's a Hudson Hornet, DJ. About a 1949. A Hudson from the same vintage that Morgan Freeman first drove Jessica Tandy in Driving Miss Daisy.
Aha! I was about to say "South Pasadena has all the great vintage cars," but AHA!
