The bright sheen of a smooth paint job. The firm texture of the leather seating and steering wheel. The fierce rumbling of the engine and the abundant horsepower that can be heard and felt from miles away. Whether you’re a passionate car enthusiast or a casual admirer, these details can leave a lasting impression on any car fan.
We caught up with a few of these automobile aficionados at a recent Cars and Coffee event in Southlake. From a 1956 Mercedes to a 2020 Ford GT, these timeless rides are in a class of their own, and their collectors don’t mind showing them off. In the end, these owners are as fond of the mechanics as they are of memories made alongside their favorite set of wheels.
