Description
...during World War II young soldiers and sailors dreamed of pin-up girls such as Betty Grable, Rita Hayworth, Veronica Lake and Jane Russell to name just a few.
...but they also dreamed of building their very own hotrod after the war was over.
...this was their car of choice...a 1932 Ford Coupe.
...Yesterday, while walking around a nearby marina with camera in-hand, I almost fell over this little gem just parked on the street waiting for me to take its picture.
This car is such an icon that the Beach Boys sang about it. IF you don't mind the Beach Boys for a little nostalgia fix, Click Here.

Amazing shots of this beauty Bill, wow. My dad was a 'drooler' of all those chicks. The cars, not so much...not sure where I got the love for these old classics but I am always thrilled to be able to see one. Thank you for this beautiful post.

Well you have a huge Beach Boys fan here and used to drive my friends crazy as they were on my tape player a lot when I have my Oldsmobile. A really fine Little Deuce Coupe Bill and don't forget John Milners yellow one in American Graffiti :)

Great collage. One of my neighbors has a Model T Ford, he doesn't drive it that often but probably about once a month I see it pass by my house, and it always makes me smile.

This was also called the Model B (not to be confused with Ford's B of 1904). A classmate in high school had one(not customized) many, many years ago. They rode smoother than the Model A.

My cousin has spent years building 'The California Kid'. It's black with flames along the side and a cut down roof. But I think from memory it is a 34. Great shots and car Bill.

SUPERB CAPTURE

Well, the closest I ever came to having one of these was a plastic model when I was a kid... A great capture of this classic, Bill!

It was a popular car and I remember seeing all those stars with them. Great captures of this little beauty.

Interesting variety of POVs to capture the elegance of this redesigned old timer, Bill. I posted a collage of this auto, shown in different concepts, sometime back.

Very nice collage Bill and I enjoyed all the comments too! I too wouldn't worry about blurring plates; if it's an invasion of privacy to him then keep it inside. Besides, unless you are a hacker or a cop, you cannot identify anyone by a plate number, at least not here.
