Vintage shots from days gone by!

I think this is the starting point of my hotrod addiction....That's me sitting with my dad in his old dirt car , later that day my dad and some of the other drivers drove there cars in a local parade and I got to ride with my dad in his car before the thing started the drivers made some banners with the name of there club to hang on the sides of the cars..,they were members of the Columbia Co. HotRod Association. Well as we all proceeded down the parade route and I waving madly out the passengers side door window not knowing that the banners read Columbia Co. HotRod Ass. and the part of the banner ,that went down the side of my dad's car ,the side that I was waving from read HotRod Ass. So I'm a HotRod Ass from way back.....
