I've always looked at old car grilles and could see "Smiling Faces" in most of them. All of my life I have been fascinated by the amazing designs that have been produced over the years.

Here is a collection of 176 photographs of beautiful hot rods, restored cars and trucks, and even a few junk heaps. Please look at the book preview for a sample selection. Enjoy.
