This week we take it back to the 1950s. The world was recovering and we were beginning to see some great cars roar to life. Andrew picks a Pixar car, Steve goes Euro of course with Clark Gable's car…
Before we jump into it, there's a couple of things that have happened.
I know we don't really do news on here, but only because we have Andrew who's hard at work on actual cars.
Leno's law passed.
You guys know what this is? Oh, yeah.
Yeah? Are you clapping away from the microphone?
I don't want to break people's earlobes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The little that I know about this is basically any car in between, what is it, after 75 is okay now? Yeah, 76 to 81.
76 to 81.
So very narrow.
Yeah.
And you have to have classic car insurance, has to be a collector car, and you get 1,000 miles a year or something like that?
And I ask this, what do the historic plates get you right now? Isn't this very similar to the California historic plates? It doesn't get you smog, I don't think.
I see.
Yeah.
How does one obtain a historic plate?
We'll save that for another pod because I have no idea.
Oh.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, I'm stoked.
I mean, I got to make it to 2028.
