Today’s Top 5

Car ID

Oldsmobile, circa 1910. Note the same hubcaps on the car in Knives Out, also an Olds.

Ahead of His Time

33-inch rims, WOW!, he'd be the envy of many in some car circles today.

[It's a 33-inch tire, with a 4-inch cross section. Which works out to 25-inch rims. - Dave]

Rollbar?

Just duck down a bit, below the top of the steering wheel. Of course, you can also rely on your crash hat.

Acme Tires

He'll never be able to catch that Roadrunner!
