I enjoyed that, watched it twice and counted seven various cars with.........whitewalls!!!! Loved that Roadster that followed along. Sometimes I wish I had bought a Roadster, maybe in my next life.

I wish I had the room and money to have one of each model, but living in a cold state, I like the comfort of an enclosed car.:)

Higher end luxury cars yes, but the A's no.;):D
Of course I only have watched it once, but I didn't see any whitewalls on A's or motorcycles:)

Re: Interesting Video

At the begining you can see the recreation of old Fort Dearborn, You can see other famous buildings that they were building or recreating for the worlds fair in 33 and 34. And then right after you can see Soldier Field (where the Bears Play now) The airfield that you see is probably Orchard Field which was way out in the sticks then, Most people know it now as O'Hare !

In my next life I'll be living in San Angelo, if you see a Model A Roadster running around in San Angelo Texas, it will mean I have died, so flag me down and welcome me back!!! We'll have a Lone Star and some tacos with some of my sonorities admirers. ;)

Re: Interesting Video

fascinating film of a bygone era, so different from our own. The Wiki article on Wiley Post says that the "Winnie Mae" survives today in the National Aerospace Museum.
