My brother-in-law Vicente has been visiting us and we decided to take him for lunch at the Depot in Cold Spring. As we were sitting there I heard the roar of an engine and saw this colorful car reverse into a parking space and rushed over to take some pictures of it.

I don’t really know what it is other than that it’s some kind of Ford. That much at least was emblazoned on the trunk. I’m not at all sure what model though. After some web browsing it seems to me that it’s a 1954 model – either a Crestline, a Customline, or a Mainline. It’s a bit hard to tell (at least for me) with the hood having been removed to accomodate the large piece of machinery (I don’t know enough to know what it is) in the pictures. It’s certainly a spectacular piece of technology though.
