It’s Yellowstone National Park, Montana side, I think.

With all those California plates, probably Yosemite... maybe...

 

I'm sharing this one again.
My grandparents, grandpa in the plaid jacket by the front fender, grandma in the helmet in the driver's seat.
Grandpa passed away a while ago, Grammy joined him last night. We miss them both.

 

Calif plates

That would make a great poster.

 

Sorry for your loss.

 

Love Miss Mae.

 

Must be old sulpher water!

 

Guess which car has the fold down seats??????

 

The Nash in the lower right corner.

 

It could be both.Before they discouraged feeding the animals bears would cross the roads like this in national parks. And in some areas of the northwest and northeast the would cross the roads like this, I( have seen bear cross the road now in my neighborhood and once coming home from Lebanon Valley drag strip.

Nice Riley 2Port head. Bob

 

"Blue Flame" was officially only the name of a particular high compression version of Chevrolet's 1937-1963 overhead-valve inline-six engine.

 

That's the OVERDONE rebuild of the Vic Edlebrock Dry Lakes Roadster isn't it? Bob

 

Hi Gary
we like your posts
as we live in Australia we like to be part of this site
sadly not many American cars came downunder in the vintage days
so for us to post a vintage shot from days gone by it may only show non American cars
my 1929 restored Chev looks American but was made here by GM Holden
hope Ryan can see our point

Is it just me or are those rod's headlamps bulging out more than usual?

 

These color pictures that Life magazine took at the Tarrytown, NY final assembly plant surface here once in a while. These particular pictures are from the unloading dock where they’re pulling engines, fresh from Flint, off the boxcars. The 235 Blue Flame sixes were, well, Flame Blue. Or some kinda blue.

 

When the 230 replaced the 235 they must have switched to orange paint too

 

Nice batch of Volksrods - used to get a lot of ink in Rod & Custom in the mid-to-late sixties; kinda forgotten now.
Anyone here have/had one?

 

Blue flame six.
