    Pretty cool. In 1956, it was really rare for the average person to even have a movie camera.

  9. Great stuff, not a mag wheel in the whole thing. Think I'll pop the caps off my Fury and cruise this weekend with black steelies and wide whites looking like I'm going to the strip. Thanks for sharing.

    that was great, being as young as I am (24), I always love getting to see just a peek of an area I admire.

    Great, great video. Thanks for taking the time to post and giving the people who weren't there to take a peek back. Aaahhh white port and lemon juice, got put in jail in Lake Tahoe a long long time ago behind that fine and classy upscale drink. Cost me 10 days of my life.

    Most of those car club cars were typical for 1956, but that slammed '53 Cad was way cool and ahead of its time!

  29. Thanks for sharing, a copy needs to be sent to the New York Hot Rod historical society. :cool:
    My feable lttle mind made several observations, some of which have already been mentioned.
    1. notice all the brand new cars? Damn these Kats had excess cabbage to blow! ...or swiped mom/Dads car and yanked the caps.
    2. Red rims really did exist "back in the day"
    3. these Kats weren't no square, dig those stylish threads and loafers!
