Story and photos by Charley Seavey
My father was a car geek and I inherited his interests. I mean, the guy owned a Stanley Steamer back in the day, and a Stutz Bearcat. He and I went to sports car races at Thompson, CT, and Beverley (MA) airport when I was a kid. I have vivid memories of watching a yellow Ferrari belching flames from multiple exhaust pipes as it slowed down for turn one at Thompson. As a photographer I’m also fascinated with small details as well as the overall car. Hence things like the V-16 grill ornament on the 1930 Caddy you’ll see below.
