Three classics: Lockheed Electra, Cord Cabriolet, and Amelia Earhart.

Somehow I think the best memorial to Amelia Earhart took place in 1997 or so when a modern aviatrix flew a restored Lockheed Electra around the world following the same path, completing her air voyage safely, this time. Modern avionics & navaids helped.

Maybe the time to let A.E. rest in peace is long overdue.

She was pretty good looking from the pictures I have seen of her. The car is a 1936 Cord 810 Cabrolet. This was the best looking of all of the Cords IMHO.
