Style and Grace
Tucked away in an industrial park of Oxnard, California one will find a very unique collection of vintage cars unbeknownst to, shall we say, the general public. For those “gearheads” the Mullin Automotive Museum, I’m sure is well know. I am most definitely not a gearhead, but I do appreciate style and grace in any form and one perfect example is in the French automotive designs of the 1920’s and 30’s. The curves and lines incorporated into the stylistic design is breath taking; but what I became most fascinated with was the hood ornaments.
