Link is my Brother's '32 Ford pickup with Hemi engine and six Strombergs.
Video with me as PAX halfway down track in comments.
He built that pickup several years ago and is well known in the "Valley". He expert engine builder who built the engine for my Mini.
One of the most intersting cars was the Franklin in the pic. I walked up to it and said " That looks like an airplane engine. I saw the name Frnnklin and knew that Franklin made airplane engines (Stinson Station Wagon) but didn't know they made cars. I later confirmed it when I asked the owner.

Here are a couple I saw at the auto museum in reno. a 1908 and a 1930
