Old Cars by Susan Blackaby Pdf

Before cars were invented, people used horse-drawn carts. So early cars looked a lot like those carts. Then car makers worked to make cars sleeker, better, and faster. Many people now like their cars shiny and new. But fans of old cars love the early models the best! Find out what it takes to drive a race car, ride through the back country, restore an old car, or fly over the water. Traveling on wheels, on water, or in the air can be pretty cool. Old Cars is one of 6 books in a set called Cool Rides, which is part of the Sound Out Phonics Based Chapter Books series. Cool Rides (Sound Out Levels 5 and 6) focus on the following skills: contractions, one-syllable spelling patterns, tense endings, word endings, compound words, prefixes and suffixes, and simple two-syllable words. Readers will not be able to tell that each book is written using controlled vocabulary. This audio edition features professional narration and highlights text as it is read.

Rusty Love-Hanging With Old Cars by John Timmins Pdf

Rusty Love - Hanging With Old Cars is a magnificent collection of photos, words and poetry capturing old car moments forgotten through time and reclaimed by nature. These beautiful old cars are lost to a world of technology. Where all things fast is preferred and having more over less is desired, it is easy to forget their stories, their voice and their grandeur. Sure there are few examples about, but in a world when everything needs to be done yesterday, they can easily be missed, left unnoticed or quickly scooped up for a quick dollar. Now that’s ok, but one day when they’re all gone... then what? Rusty Love by John Timmins manages to capture and recreate those untold stories through his photography, poetry and art. It is a romantic journey that invites you to join him on a walk back in time when cars had a voice. The once warriors, war horses and daily drivers, the shining examples and the mistreated have all added their own part to the Australian culture. This far away land keeps them secret as they sleep through the elements, their shadows are all they have. Hanging with old cars is a step back in time for those who choose to reminisce and for others who wish for old things to be new again.

Old Car Detective by Bill Sherk Pdf

In this hilarious collection of old car stories, Canada’s very own "Old Car Detective" Bill Sherk presents 80 of his favourite stories from all 10 provinces, spanning the years from 1925 to 1965. In this book you will meet the man in New Brunswick who chopped the top off his 1927 Whippet sedan in honour of the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II; the young fellow from Kingston, Ontario, who thought his 1937 Ford coach looked better with all four fenders taken off; the owner of a 1947 Hudson that burned so much oil he had to wear a snorkel mask while driving it; the father who borrowed his son’s hot-rodded ’53 Monarch (built only in Canada!) and got pulled over by the police for street racing; and the grandmother who moved from England to Canada and drove her Morris Minor on the wrong side of the road. Behind every old car there’s a story waiting to be told, all the way from your grandparents’ Model T Ford to the Mustang you drove in high school. All the stories and photographs in this book are in chronological order from 1925 to 1965, giving you a 40-year journey through Canada’s rich automotive heritage and brought to life by the people who owned and drove the cars of yesteryear – and some still do! PART ONE (1925 to 1942) takes you from the middle of the Roaring Twenties to February 1942, when the Second World War brought automobile production to a halt for three long years. PART TWO (1946 to 1965) takes you through the Baby Boom years when cars driven by Canadians went through many exciting changes in styling and engineering. If you have ever owned (or still own) a car that was built between 1925 and 1965, turn to the last page in this book to see how you can send in your story for Bill Sherk’s next book.
