So, yesterday I was bored so I decided to go to the LeMay Auto Museum in Tacoma. With this visit and my last one about a year ago, I had something like 200 pictures! Here's some selected pictures from the album. Enjoy!
A turbine powered Ford Model A that was once owned by Preston Tucker:
On our way to the second car area, this Pierce-Arrow arrived on a flatbed truck:
Red Lincoln Continential:
Jeeps and Hummers have nothing on this 1969 Mercedes Unimog:
These are the blue chip investments, right here (the cars, not the tour group). Note the microcars placed on elevated shelves:
1929 Pierce Arrow Model 125. Note headlights mounted on the fenders - a Pierce-Arrow trademark:
1929 Franklin Coupe. The radiator is just for show - the engine is air-cooled:
1912 Standard Electric. If you thought electric vehicles were a new thing, you need to do some reading:
1948 Tucker Torpedo. In my opinion, this was the highlight of the trip:
1938 Supercharged Graham "Sharknose." Introduced with the slogan "The Spirit of Motion," it looked like it was going 60 miles per hour while standing still:
The Bricklin SV-1 did gullwing doors a full seven years before the DeLorean:
