The American Underslung Automobile & The American Motor Car Co.
When I was an early teen, I met Walt Seeley, the first professional auto restorer I had yet met, and he significantly altered my life. He had a very large machine shop, and out front he sold exotic and rare cars, many were antiques already in 1960. I sat in a 1936 Auburn Boat-tail and drove a Model T for the first time because he allowed… |

Caffeine & Octane - In like a lion, out like a lamb!
Weather is tricky for any outdoor gathering, but March is particularly fickle. I arrived to set up at the Caffeine & Octane gathering in Alpharetta, GA on March 6, 2011 a little early because I thought I might need time to set up in the drizzle rain. Of course the lot was empty but the drizzle had now strengthened and the breeze was more like a gusty wind. The weatherman had said it would be light and even would stop by 8am. It was still dark, so we had some time to let it…

The 1948 Ford F-1 Pickup
The 1948 Ford F-1 wasn’t just a new truck, it was the start of something big. When Ford introduced it, they launched the very first F-Series, the truck line that would become America’s favorite for generations. This was the first Ford pickup built on a dedicated truck chassis rather than a car-based frame,…
