It's so hot outside, I thought you deserved a float

From the archive, this St Petersburg Shuffleboard Club 'Parade of States' float ran in two parades, the 1938 and '39, was powered by a 1933 Pierce-Arrow 462 cubic inch V-12 engine that generated over 175 hp and had a top cruising speed of 110 mph. The float was later believed to have been donated to the war effort.
