Vintage shots from days gone by!

April 1937. "Buttermilk Junction, Martin County , Indiana ."

 

Looks like the Michelin Man on the grille.

 

Now that's what the Highway Patrol was set up to do in the first place... help motorists.

 

Yup, that's Bibendum, the Michelin mascot.

 

I agree about having always considered the '61 Plymouths to be one of the ugliest cars. However, a couple of years ago I saw a really well done orange '61 hardtop at the Viva Las Vegas car show and I thought it was very cool. I guess my tastes may have mellowed over the years but the extremely well conceived custom was a mind changer.

 

I wanted to hear from someone else who thought they were ugly before I said that. I've read a description where someone compared it to a crab.

 

This is whole lot of ugly that looks like it crawled in from the sea.
