If I were a car, I’d be a Futura. I saw one at the garage down the street from me. Gus, the mechanic, usually has two or three beauties getting a little work done. Nothing removed, puffed up, or otherwise altered, just a little tune-up underneath the hood.
Wikipedia tells me (do you actually have to cite wikipedia?): “The Classic Car Club of America maintains that a car must be between 20 and 45 years old to be a classic, while cars over 45 years fall into the Antique Class.”
Um. I think I’m an antique. But if you’d be so kind, I’d prefer to be referred to as “vintage.”
Speaking of which, Vivienne Westwood is a rare vintage, always worth a listen!
