An old Thunderbird in front of Newport's last strip joint, the Brass Ass. When I arrived in town, there were close to twenty of them.

A really hot looking Studebaker in front of my old hang out, Peyton Place. Best breakfast in town.

Wild orange pickup in front of Kamp's Carpets, 6th and Monmouth.

This girl said she dreamed that someday she would have a Thunderbird like this. I hope her dream comes true.

Mr. Softee


Right across from my warehouse are two Mr. Softee trucks. Here is one at Seventh St. during the car show.

A Crosley minicar. Powell Crosley was a famous Cincinatian. An inventor and entrepreneur, he owned the Cincinnati Reds and WLW, the radio station. He designed this car as well as radios. The beloved old home of the reds, Crosley Field, was named after him.

The Green Line buses used to run through Northern Kentucky. This bus must be from the early 1950's.
