    I took part in the Hot Rod power tour last month. I guess this is the right spot to share some of those pictures!

    That top car is a Bricklin. Only made two years (74 & 75) in Canada. I have a funny story from working at a Foreign car dealer. We did not sell Brickins, never had even seen one in real life. A Brickin pulls in sounding his horn, the shop was full so we could not let him in. He kept on the horn, frantically waving. The Lift mechanism for the doors had failed and he could not get out of the car. He stopped three other places but they did not know. We looked everything over and could not figure it out so we called Canada. There was a place you could insert a crank handle and hand crank it open. The guy ran straight to the washroom and came back really happy. We looked at the car and found the problem, fixed it and we never saw him again.

    Heard a guy talking about the "tri-5's" that other day saying that he liked them because they were small. It's been a while since I have been around one, but I don't recall thinking they were small.

    Is he referencing the other cars of the era? Or are they "small"?
    1957 Chevy 200 inches. 1957 Plymouth 204 inches, 1957 Ford 203 inches,
    1957 Lincoln 224 inches, 1957 Cadillac 224.

    Three or Four inches shorter is a big deal in some things, but not in sedans.
