Well I know it's not a T but it is an old car. I've had this one for 33 years. 1964 Imperial. When they got to the prom and they got out her principal said "Wow, what an entrance!" They had a blast. A bit of gloating for me. She earned a 4 year Air Force Scholarship to the University of Virginia to study Chemical Engineering and is completing high school having never received anything lower than an A.

They can be wonderful, can't they? How nice they can enjoy the car.
A friend's son went in their model A.
Congratulations. Not all do as well.

I hope she made him wait while she cleaned under her nails!
Congrats on success with your daughter.

Nice car! My niece's high school prom was 20's era based and some locals had lent 2 cars for photo shoots, a Packard and another large car of that style. I was glad to see it because it happens to peek interest in 1 younger person that might help keep the hobby going.

You have posted photos of your daughter here on the forum in the past, but I think this may be the first one where she isn't under the hood with a wrench in her hand.
