The Car Show in Downtown Meridian, Mississippi

 Eric and I walk up and down the street to look at Meridian's Car Shos.






This 1962 MG MGA, the
smallest car here.










A full-size Tonka Truck...

I am so excited!




This is an awesome truck.

It is the largest vehicle on
display.











1967 Mustang Convertible






The owner of this Rat Rod
has a great sense of humor.







The license plate says - Yes, It Is Cool.  No, I'm Not Going To Paint It.  






is adored & reviled.







Ralph Nader's 1965 book, Unsafe at Any Speed focused on his years of research on American Automobile Safety.  He concluded that passenger safety was not a primary concern of American Automakers for the fifty-plus years of information that he reviewed.

Nader took aim at the Corvair for its one-piece steering column which can impale drivers in front-end collisions and the car's rear-end suspension deficiencies.  The Corvair had other chronic problems - its near-constant oil leakage and a car heater that pumped noxious fumes into the car.  











1950 Mercury Sedan











Customized 1952 Chevrolet










1949 Pontiac Silver Streak

It & the Trailer in tow were 
used for the owner's 
honeymoon.





The bed, kitchen & a counter
with storage





The dining room with 
multiple views










It looks like it has been
preserved as a World










1969 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am








Each Car Show is different.  This one is eclectic.
