We had some time to kill near Balboa Park this weekend, so we popped over to the Automotive Museum. It’s not a large collection, but they have some pretty cool vehicles, including this 1940 Mercury Custom Coupe called “Cherry Bomb.”
I have more photos that I’ll share at a later date.
Hope your week’s going well so far.

Pearls & Prose 
It’s a beaut, Ms. Pearl! (I’d love to look that good when I’m 74.)
Hey, me too!
What a car! And I can’t think of a better name to describe it. It reminds me of the Jessica Rabbit character in the animated movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Vivacious!
Ha ha, true!
What a perfect name. Beautiful car.
It really is. Someone put a lot of work into restoring this thing.
Oh my grandfather would have loved to have seen this car. Or own it.
Another car buff, eh?
