When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!

These must be BMW sidecar bikes, post war, naturally aspirated. What a wild ride !

Crude helmets and second skin leather combos. Can't get over the fact that the second rider of the bike in front, seems to be wearing Converse sneakers....not the safest shoes at 200km/h, but probably light and small, as to fit inside the car.

An automobile sits under pipes with multiple nozzles spraying water at a car wash in 1939.

I know that is the official online description you quoted, Joe. But to me it looks much more like a factory test facility for (rain) water leaks. the license plate seems to read New York Worlds Fair 1939. Interesting 3 digit number and it appears to be a 1936/7 Lincoln ?

^...and she's gonna have fun, fun, fun, 'til her daddy takes her T-bird away..... :003:

no way to tell from this perspective on the T bird, but they both could be 57 models.

edit: nice live cut here. Mike and his infamous chewing gum....haha... Brians high pitch voice at the 2:15 break always takes me away...

There is a way to tell from that pic. That's a '55 T-Bird.

Tom, can you please explain ? I was thinking hard to find any details but couldn't. I am just guessing, is it in the Y block V8 badge ?

Yup. Looked at pix of '55-'57 Birds & '55s are the only ones with the V8 badge. I knew that '55s are the only ones with the cross checkered flags badge on the nose.
BTW, going by the year of the cop car I'm pretty sure that the driver of the T-Bird is a model that's much older than 1957. She's got to be at least a 1937 or older model. :002:

Lots of things make that a 55.  Yes, the Y block emblems were only used on the 1955,  There is no vent windows, there is no sun visors just to name a few.
