I love cars

Not a lot of people know this but one of my hobbies is cars. When I was a child I would read a lot of books from the library about cars, that and books about dogs too. I would tell my mother innocently one day I will own that car garage (not knowing then about money. I just knew I loved the cars).

When my father would buy a new car or get his car serviced I generally always went with him to see all the different cars in the shop. I loved the smell of new cars. When dad would buy a new car I remember as a child I would be always fidgeting around the car trying to find all the new stuff that the old car wouldn't have while dad was driving (safely though I always had my seatbelt on lol). I generally knew a lot about the car by the time my father would have driven us home which was at most a 45 minute drive.

As I became an adult the interest started fading unfortunately due to different circumstances but I am still interested in cars and I want to rekindle my interest I had in cars. I like the look of expensive cars and I do have somewhat of an interest in them but my preference is more finding out more affordable stylish cars and classic cars. 

I was thinking from time to time I may share about some makes of cars and facts about them on my blog here. Maybe even car makes that were featured on T.V. shows such as Knight rider, Batman and the Waltons etc. That way I will find out along with you more about car.

The Regular cars on the Waltons

Here is a list of some of the cars that appeared on the Waltons  John Walton had a 1928 Model AA Ford 1 and a half ton pickup truck John-boy had a 1929/30 Ford Model A Coupe Jim-Bob had a 1926 Ford Model T This one could be the one he built himself Curt had a 1932 Ford Model B Sedan Delivery The Walton's family car in later seasons was a 1941 Plymouth Woody Station Wagon The Baldwin sisters could have had a 1925 Studebaker Cindy had a 1939/40 Ford convertible I couldn't find what make car Ep Bridges had and the website I saw wasn't sure about the Baldwin sisters car. My favourite of these cars would have to be Cindy's car because red is my favourite colour especially in a car. Fact about John Walton's truck. Sometimes it would not run so they would have to put a rope around the front bumper and some of the crew men would pull the truck into or out of the shot. Most of the vehicles were hard to steer. I found out about this fact on Judy Norton's (Mary Ellen) yout...
