That red Packard was Joe Kennedy's car when he was an Ambassador.

Well, an East German Trabant 500, made in the early 1960s, that comes as a surprise in Chicago. The power of 20 horses accelerated the occupants to warp speed.

Kev and Tom:

It was great meeting up with both of you Saturday. I really enjoyed seeing your cars up close and personal. Great restorations and a testament to both of your ingenuity and perseverance. I look forward to being see you at other events around Chicagoland this summer. Attached are additional shots of "Old Bessie". Congratulations Tom !

BTW - The Joseph P. Kennedy car is a 1502 limousine I believe. Right hand drive.
