Today’s Top 5

Cigarette Lighter

That cigarette lighter sure would do a number on anyone hitting it with their face.

Road Salt

My Florida grandparents drove a 50's Plymouth station wagon that had nearly the entire floorboards eaten away by salt. It looked a lot like this picture.

By the way, pretty lady! This picture makes her look like she's driving in Heaven, where an angel like her probably ended up by now.

'54 Buick Special

I learned to drive on my Grandmother's '54 Buick Special (4 door sedan), virtually the same interior. The starter was part of the accelerator. You pressed down and it started, then you just used the pedal the same as normal! I was 6'2" and could almost stretch out across the front seat.

Shoes

I can't believe i am saying this but cute shoes!! And it really doesn't matter where the dashboard is going to hit her because the steering wheel will get there first and it would crush her, it's so big.

Naaa

It's pointing to her face, not her heart. :D

what a beautiful dashboard

No seat belts necessary

Steering column perfectly designed to impale the heart. Good thing she has those white gloves on!

Great reference! You hardly

Great reference! You hardly see the behind-the-scenes work.
