When a car was a car.
When a car was a car....... sights we will never see again! Heber City, Utah At King Road in Owosso, Michigan. Pere Marquette 1225, a 2-8-4 Berkshire, pours it on with a freight from history next to a Ford Model A pickup. Recreating a scene. Heber City , Utah. Union Pacific 2-8-0 #618 and a 1953 Buick Super. This has to be the classic of classic photos! It defies time itself. This photo transports you back to those wonderful days when life was full of simple pleasures, back when we were satisfied with less and happy to walk instead of ride. This is February 6, 2007 when time and eternity intersect at this crossing. And to think that you and I, and others, once had a stage like this everyday for the greatest performance ever. Harley Earl and the 1938 Buick.. Think about this. This picture was taken 72 years ago. 1941 Chrysler Thunderbolt 1951 Buick LeSabre.
