Thanks for sharing Naki! I have often times wished I could have been born during that era. I loved looking at the cars and I also loved the pictures of the diner.
Great find!

Thanks Naki! I can remember back to about '58 and a lot of those cars going down the road. (I was a car nut as a kid)

I grew up with many of those cars in my life..
I still have a 1959 caddy..She has 76,000 miles on her and never has been touched except normal needs..
She is a Black coup de ville, and still has the factory seat covers that was put there for shipping..
Very rare items..
Whenever I drive her, there is a furry of activity by eveyone that sees her..
Got pulled over last fall so the cop could tell me he really liked my Caddy..LOL

Betsy is the name Dad Gave to her and it is still what everyone in my family calls Her..
It is a blessing from my father, I brought her while I was in the ARMY.
He once said if the Caddy goes so will the Hobbit..
And she is the ONLY car I have ever had feelings for..
I truly Love driving Her..

One should never love objects only People..

But as has been said in my family, They are going to Bury the Caddy and my Black Harley with me someday..
LOL..

Amazing craftsmanship with the model cars and the segueing of the models to the background scenery area. Other than the sets looking a touch too clean, you'd think you viewing some photos from the 40's and 50's.

And on a side note, the architecture is fantastic as well. :icon_lol:
I love the work he's done on those buildings.
Especially the diner. I love that style.
