Twenty-six Classics to Ring Out the Year

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

A is for Allard, they’re plenty rare
B is for Bentley and nary a care,
C is for Chevy, the bowtie brand,
D is for Dodge, a family sedan,

E is for Edsel, son of old Henry,
F is for Ford, and hot rods a’ plenty,
G is Ghia, styled some real nifties,
H is for Hudson,  gone since the Fifties,

I for Isetta, drew Bimmer some snears,
J: Kaiser model once sold by Sears,
Kharmann penned Triumph, and so Michelotti,
Look at Hillman and Stude’, see Raymond Loewy,

M is the Merc, pull its crank for your flathead,
N is for Nash—’styles couldn’t have lasted,
O is the Olds, last rites we have read for,
P is Plymouth, the same can be said for,

Q is the letter makers pass over, but
R will stand for the all-terRange Rover,
S is the Stutz, a great ’20s racer,
T is for Tucker, hero dream-chaser,

U can be Unic, a brass-era taxi,
V is the Vector, twin-turbo nasty,
W, for Willy’s, the trusty old go-fer,
X, for X-body Ventura and Nova,

Y is the Yugo, poor driver’s friend,
Z is for Zephyr, and this poem’s End.
