         The life and times of Mark and Paula Persons

Friday, July 5, 2013: 

The annual antique car show was held at the Bodyworks in Brainerd.

Collectors from all over came to show off their vintage vehicles.

Leroy Albertson brought this 1934 Oldsmobile.

Mark's friend Dave Schaeffer was impressed by the 1932 Oldsmobile.

A beautifully restored automobile.

Imagine that, it sold for just over $1000 when it was new. 

Here is a 1929 Model A Ford truck.

Probably looks better than the day it was new.

On the foreign car side of the ledger, Mark found this Subaru van.

Mark is only 5 ft, 9 inches tall.  This car is a lot shorter.

It even has a driver door that opens to the front rather than the rear.

Probably dangerous as heck in an accident.

A ruby red car from the 1930's.

Good size trunk too.

Collectors really go all out to make their entry look special.

They love to show what they have.

Yes, and oldie, but goodie.

That phrase can often be applied to the owner as well.

Most of the vehicles at the show were Fords.

That company has a rich history of providing transportation to this country and the world. 


Interesting sunset that night.

Quote of the day:  You can never see too many classic cars and trucks.   Mark    < Back to previous story Ahead to next story >
