There is nothing like the sights, sounds and smells of this event and was fortunate to be a spectator in 2008.

Several years ago some car buddies and I got to ride around a bit on the replica cars for the locally produced film "The Greatest Auto Race on Earth" 2008. Even being movie cars it was still a really cool thrill. The Protos is on my right. The cars now reside at the Reynolds Museum in Wetaskiwin, Alberta.

That is a good looking coupe indeed. It looks to me like a 1928, smooth fenders and big drum headlights.

And then I took the 1915 touring out afterwards, very fortunate to live in a rural area with many great backroads just out my front door. I hope you like the picture with the round hay bale, that field was rough!

Took the 1915 runabout out for a drive after work, we are having a nice September this year in central Alberta. I thought the big stack of square straw bales would make a good backdrop.

Tire kicker - Someone who appears to be interested in buying something, asks a lot of questions but doesn't buy anything. This pertains to nobody on this site I presume.

They are traveling in a Franklin, a great choice. This is a fantastic snippet of the time period, and pretty good quality too. I liked the Nash with the side window sunshades and the Kenosha script on the rad. at 16:35. Thanks for posting.

I did my '27 Chrysler with The Striper a few years ago and found it very user friendly, I would think almost anyone could do a nice job with it. Proper pinstriping massively improves the visual appeal of an automobile.

We bought this 1920 Ford in Ashcroft B.C. last year from the estate of long time VCCC member Stallard McConnell. According to his son, the car had been in the area since new and he bought it from that family.

Nice work to get a great looking car completed.

That is one good looking automobile.

On older brake systems, often the modern brake linings are too hard to be effective. We spent many years and dollars and visits to a couple of experts with our 1958 Olds 98. We installed organic shoes, now it stops as good as it goes.

Nice job Matt. Great description for those of us who love to drive or ride in just about anything that moves.

Now these are added to our collection of orphan cars I guess.

We used to have this old barn in the background shown here. The barn swallows would fly out as soon as you walked in the doorway and as a habit we would just naturally duck down.

To make tea?

I have just a photo of a 1924 Biddle and Smart sedan if it helps at all.

The Hudson Super Six is a popular choice for many participants in the Great Race, and a number of winners too.

May be of interest to someone here. As seen on Kijiji in Ontario, Canada (border ?) and should be reasonable value at $24.000 USA dollars. https://www.kijiji.ca/v-classic-cars/kingston-on/classic-car/1505713168?undefined 1919 Buick Six roadster.

Well done sir and like Frank Burns on MASH said "It's nice to be nice to the nice".

Looks to be the Brougham body style (close coupled sedan) built by Biddle & Smart.
