Ready for her photo ops with the neighborhood trick or treater's.....although it is usually the parents who want to climb aboard and get their picture taken next to Mr. Bones.

Awesome pic, Frank. Growing up in a T family in Pasadena, I remember going to see “The Great Race” in Hollywood when it first released and I was still a kid. I’m pretty sure that a group of T folks went to see it together. “Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines” was another T group movie field trip with the same feel. I’ll still stop and watch either movie today, if it comes up while flipping through the channels.

I wonder where that car is now…

Regarding the "Great Race," Stahl's Museum NE of Detroit has both one of professor Fate's movie cars as well as the Leslie Special. It's a wonderful car museum if you've never visited. Forum member Seamus Hnat is a restoration specialist there (lucky dog!)

My friend Gene added some accessories to his '22 for the recent Zimmer / Color tour in SE Michigan. I snapped this after he'd loaded the car on his trailer. He has spiders and webs in the oval windows and bats by the passenger area.

I put this on the summer over thread, but here’s the wife and some mums and pumpkins we got locally the other day.

Does this count? Ford Model K roadster owned by a magician (or Warlock) in Toledo OH, prior to WWII. The car still exists:

I took the original owner of our '26 Touring for a ride yesterday.

He seemed to enjoy it... when we pulled back into the driveway the old gent was grinning ear-to-ear!

Several beat me to it! Yesterday, I drove the car down to the Alpine Historical Museum. The owner of this old house built in 1896 wanted to drive the car!
