    Our driver XK120. Goes to the grocery store, the hardware store and on long-distance trips with us. Has a few accommodations made for modern highways including a Salisbury 4HA rear axle with taller rear-end gearing, a third brake light and below-the-boot-lid tail lights, and an extended pedal box so that we can unfold ourselves after driving 2 hours at a clip!

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
