Peggy,
And what a good student you were! Nice work!
Here's my second of the day, a Rat Rod!
"Here's a rare truck, you certainly don't see every day or even every year! A 1949 Diamond T Tow Truck or Wrecker Truck! Very few of these are around anymore and this one is in great condition, with the "added" improvements and upgrades."

Why, thank you very much, Mr. Franco! You're a very good teacher, and generous with your knowledge and support.
Here's another one I processed using your technique... a shiny black 1932 Ford Roadster photographed at the 2017 show of classic cars, the Sleepy Hollow Rod Run Show n Shine held in Sechelt on the Sunshine Coast of beautiful British Columbia, Canada. (I have gone to other car shows btw but this one was so good and also convenient to where I used to live.)

"Classic 1037 Buick Century" - Photographed at the Show 'n Shine car show in Garden Bay on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia in 2013. The Show 'n Shine was hosted by Ron Johnston, the owner of the Garden Bay Pub, a well-known local watering hole that had many excellent bands over the years. I even sat in there on occasion! Ron sold the pub in 2014 and the Show 'n Shine ended. The pub burned down in November, 2020.

Richard,
Nice shot, but I'd probably go with 1955 Ford Fairlane Sunliner. The '56 has a different-looking side chrome piece on it....

MG,
Back in the day, I had TWO of these, one like this image, same color, but a 1959 coupe, hardtop, and then 61 hardtop. Then an MGB-GT and finally an MGC-GT!
1914 American LaFrance Fire Engine, with a 55 foot ladder! It cost $7,600 when purchased!
The two-story, red-brick firehouse was initially located on Orlando Avenue (near Dade Street) in College Park from 1926 until 1978.When the new Station #3 was built in College Park, the Orlando Science Center moved the old station to Loch Haven Park. The old station had fallen into disrepair and faced an uncertain future. The Science Center, in cooperation with the Central Florida Fire Chief�s Association, immediately began exterior restoration. The interior renovation that followed transformed the old station into a fire museum.
In 1988, the Historical Society installed a new roof, fire stairs on the north side of the building, and restored the bathrooms. The restored station reopened two years later with a celebration and tours to educate young and old on the history of the Orlando Fire Department.

"From Wiki: The company was founded on July 25, 1945 and in 1946 K-F displayed prototypes of their two new cars at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City.
In 1953 Kaiser bought the ailing Willys-Overland company for US$63,381,175 and merged the Kaiser and Willys operations under the name Willys Motors. The decision was then made to exit the passenger car market, which was accomplished at the end of the 1955 model year. By 1956, Willys Motors built only utility vehicles, many for export, and was turning a healthy profit.
Production of Kaiser-Frazer models was centered at Willow Run, Michigan. Willow Run, the largest building in the world at that time, was built by the US government just prior to WWII for Henry Ford to build B-24 Liberator bombers.
In 1970, the Kaiser Jeep Corporation, as the company had been renamed in 1963, was sold to American Motors Corporation which continued to manufacture Jeep vehicles until AMC itself was purchased by Chrysler in 1987 for $360 million. Chrysler wanted the Jeep vehicle line and had estimated that for them to create a similar competing product and build a reputation to match would have cost in excess of $1 billion"
