It's really demoralizing to live to see the things you took for granted, be considered vintage or historic

This is mine in '60, a '52 Jag XK120

    Sorry, but I have no empathy for someone who was able to own and drive the car that I thought was one of the best automotive designs produced during my car envy years: the Jag XK120. I never even got a chance to *ride* in one.

    My own regret is that I never photographed the cars that owned. My favorite was my 1948 Austin A-40. Not a particularly spectacular auto (boxy little thing), but it was the only one in Indianapolis in the late 50s. People would stare at the pop-up turn signals in the between-door posts.
