One of several neat things about living in The Garden State is the number of auto fanatics and vintage collectors there are around here.
So it's not unusual to see a restored car or truck from any era tooling down the road on any given day.
Still, early this morning I was out on errands when I spotted a white VW Bug coming the opposite direction, and as it got closer I noted blue n red racing stripes.
Naturally I started making Love Bug jokes to myself when I spied the number decals on the hood and doors. You guessed it, 53.
I kicked myself later for not giving Herbie a honk to see if they had the Herbie Horn.
Still - The original disney movie was one of my favorites growing up, so this was pretty cool.
