The Story Behind This Car: This is a rare T-Bird because it’s got dual quads on it. It’s also got a record player that I put in. Not many kids know exactly what a record player is. I think T-Birds are a little different than the others, they sort of stand out amongst the other cars here. That’s what I like about them.

What’s so special about the Woodward Dream Cruise?: It’s just seeing the different cars and making me think about when I cruised and did things. It just brings back a lot of great memories.
