Today is the first day after the first day of spring, so that means a lot of old iron has (or will) hit the streets in places with real winters.
The real test is whether the convertibles have their tops down, because guys who drive classic convertibles are the ultimate fair weather drivers.

Hopefully, you’ll see cars like this ’68 Torino.

Or this vintage Vette.

You’ll notice there aren’t any convertibles with the top up in this month’s salute to spring–that’s because you should always let the sunshine in behind the wheel of a roofless classic.
