Just thought we might want to have a thread with pictures of your favorite cars and planes combined. Have at it! It should be fun. Here's my 1968 Camaro with my SNJ-4.

An old favorite of mine; don't know the details but it was from the Kentucky photo archive:

This has been a favorite of mine for many years for a couple of reasons. First, I’ve been a pilot for AA for over 31 years now. Second, the 1936 Lincoln Zephyr, Coupe-Sedan (2 door). As a four door was only an extra $25 when new, less than 1500 of the two doors were built that year. My late father restored one of the eight that survive today and it is now part of the Lincoln Motor Car Heritage Museum on the campus of the Gilmore Museum in Michigan.

For those of you not familiar with classic cars, the car in photo 2 is a 1936/7 Cord 810-812 Beverly sedan.
FWD, hidden headlights and some were supercharged, about 40 years ahead of its time.

The owner of the company (as well as Auburn and Duesenberg) was E.L. Cord, a principal in Stinson, Lycoming and American Airways.

Speaking of which, note the DC-3 in the next photo is actually a DST..with Wright engines.

My '69 Chevelle with the CWH B-25 back in 2014.

Here's mine NC-130A 55-0022 "Lone Wolf" and a Chevy. I did the Aircrew Life Support Equipment on the bird and knew the owner of the Chevy. I still have that picture packed away.

Both yours? Unless someone has a pic of their '67 L88 Corvette parked next to their F8F, I think you win. :drink3:

Gotta love a Corvette Bronze '68 SS396 Camaro. Only way it could be more perfect would be if were also a Rally Sport. :wink:

My 1944 Willys:

I took this photo in 2014 at the Olympia airshow appearance of Fifi, about 3 hours before the landing which blew two tires and laid up the B-29 for several days (which I posted about here and was officially accused of making the whole thing up as everyone took the CAF's word that it had never happened, but was soon confirmed in the news, even though it was more than one tire that got blown- https://www.theolympian.com/news/local/article26071096.html)

Neat info on the Cord, thanks JohnB! Now, can anyone say what the airplane is?
