I'm looking to rent an antique car (circa 1920's-1940's) for a party, just for pictures with the guests. So far, no luck on Google search. Does anyone know someone or somewhere I could contact? TIA

Probably easier to post on Facebook and see if any of your friends know anybody that owns a personal car like what you’re looking for. You could post in marketplace as well.

You want to rent it and enter it in a local car show elsewhere.

Dont feel bad, we've all done this.

I see a site for Nelson Vintage Cars & Antique Parts in Shreveport. Maybe call them and see if they rent or know someone who does.

When several movies were being shot in the area, there were mews articles about locals renting out vintage cars to the productions, so I’m pretty sure they are out there.

I'm near Shreveport and have some. I don't normally rent them (except for film) but I would consider it for a TD poster (also pretty good chance I know you). I would need some lead time, and super hot weather is not particularly great for old cars (e.g. possibly too hot to travel on their own to a photo site).

32 Buick Model 50 (my nephew had borrowed this car for a bit and I noticed that the metal trunk on the back is a little dented up (small dents that probably would not matter for a photo).



31 Ford Deluxe Coupe with rumble seat


30 Ford Model A Pickup



43 WWII Jeep



I also have the 66 Mustang that is in the background but it is too new for what you want to do.

You don't want a white car for photos. The Pickup makes for a good photo, but if you want to have people in it, large and tall people don't fit.

You would be cool with some drunk OT baw standing on the running board with his bedazzled back pocket jeans scratching the paint for a photo op

Hey, that '32 Buick is bad arse. That would be perfect. A far as a bunch of drunk Baws being all over it as another poster said, it will actually be drunk Dagos, but I guess that's not much better.

Can you email me at northlagoomba@yahoo.com? Thanks!

I will. The 32 Buick is a great car for what you are describing.
