That kid is probably riding a motorcycle right now

Wonder why they are loading that car from the 2nd floor to that delivery truck

Model T tool kit

Who? takes a bug on a deer hunting trip?

I'd like to know what's in the crate

The Nash with sleeper cab. I've seen one at a car cruise, it's not bad!

DeNiro, Taxi Driver, such an ironic sign over his arm

That is Ray Brock, but where is the steering wheel? If this were a right hand drive the speedometer would also be on the right.

This is some cool stuff! See more at http://21studs.tumblr.com

the 1953 Cadillac series 62, rebodied by Ghia and given to Rita Hayworth, by the richest man in the world at the time

gorgeous car, Prince Aly Khan (Shia Muslim of the Ismailis) is said to have been the world's richest who gifted this to Rita, he was her 3rd husband and a Pakistan national, Orson Welles was her 2nd. She was married to Khan for 2 years before his affairs with other women forced her to file for divorce. Her daughter is Princess Yasmin Aga Khan. Cool name. Khan immediately became engaged to Gene Tierney. Due to all the wrecked marriages, and I speculate the dishonor to his family, he was passed over for the Imam position that his family held for the past 1300 years, the only eldest son ever passed over, and his son, a Harvard student inherited from the grandfather.

I think I located Jay Leno's Big Dog Garage

This isn't much evidence, but it's at the general location that is commonly known (by the Burbank Airport) and Jay is supposed to have more than one building, one for working on the collection, at least one for storing them, and the sign above the door says "Service entrance"

And the amount of rubber on this side street in front of that gate, well... draw your own conclusion... but the people I asked while taking this photo said Jay is always on these streets. Soooo, I'm figuring I've found it. Not like that is going to do anything for me, but it's neat

Kirk Douglas goofing off for the camera in a wheelbarrow

It's cool to finally post a photo of Kirk Douglas, I've enjoyed his movies, and he's the type of celeb movie star that I'd catagorize as "cool". In 20,000 leagues he even sang, and that song is part of the Disney songs catalog... not the guy you'd expect to find int he Disney song catalog huh?
