alsancle Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 A generic wedding car thread might be interesting. If your parents were married in 72 that would make you the young guy around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is made up by a head start of being born into a vintage car family. Not many are so privileged to be around antique cars since infancy.

46 woodie Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 While we are on the subject it might be good to check with your insurance company if you do rent out your car for a wedding. A few years ago one of the club members rented his car out for a wedding. Unbeknownst to him, his insurance agent was attending the ceremony. His agent pulled him aside and said "you have had your insurance with me for 40 years and never mentioned that you rent your car out". He went on to say "you put me in a very awkward spot, if you read your insurance policy, it specifically states that your car can not be used in any commercial enterprise". His agent told him "if you have an accident and it's being used for hire, I'm not going to be able to help you and you could be in a lot of financial trouble". Check your insurance policy if you do rent your antique car out. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Born into a car family, I got started very early and have been addicted ever since. My first car tour was at 1 month old strapped in a car seat in our 1939 Mercury sedan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are- still owned by the same family who are great friends to this day. I took this pic of the dodge just last weekend - the Pontiac is undergoing some refreshening and I hope to have new pics soon. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
