Came across this picture of a wedding I did a few years ago and thought it was neat to share again! Like I said, cars have come a looong way over the years!

The 1912 Packard bus although challenging was a hoot to work on & drive. It weighed so much that it broke many of the tiles it's pictured on when driving over them. It had a battery ignition starting system that worked most of the time, that's good because the hand crank is almost chest high.
You just have to love this old stuff.
