A few nice small cars for girls images I found:
A *really* small car…

(Cute girl in foreground for size reference).
As time went on cars got bigger and bigger. This thing had to be smaller than the original Mini!
It’s funny, the original Honda Accord is MUCH smaller than the Civic (or probably even the Fit) today.
Glacier Girl

A totally serendipitous side trip! Middlesboro was not on my trip plan; I was trying to get to western NC as soon as the state highways would get me there. I pulled off 25E to get lunch and saw a bank’s electronic roadside sign read "Farewell, Glacier Girl." What, THAT Glacier Girl? I followed the signs to the airport and found a small parking lot full of cars. As it turns out, I was just in time–this was the last full day Glacier Girl would be here after an extensive restoration. The next morning, she was to leave for points north before flying her original intended route to the UK.
Some history:

What she looked like after being pulled from the ice:

She spent 9 or so years being restored, then she spent another 6 in the Lost Squadron museum. Unfortunately, she was unable to make the trip to the UK. She was grounded by a coolant leak in Goose Bay, Newfoundland, Canada on June 28th. She has since been sold to an air museum in Texas: the price paid was M.
