Vintage shots from days gone by!

is that a steam car?

 

probably fields' personal car...

 

I'd bet electric, but I don't know.

 

Looks to be a 1901 Locomobile steamer.

 

no brakes; that's why i thought it was a steamer. i think the one below it is an early detroit electric.

 

1908 Baker electric car.

 

This is part of the aftermath at the Union Station in Kansas City, MO. In what was referred to as the "Kansas City Massacre" there was an attempt to break out an underworld guy named Frank Nash by Pretty Boy Floyd and others. The end result was two Kansas City police officers, Frank Nash, and two federal agents dead. June 17, 1933.

 

I googled this image and got this: “Travelcade of Progress” bus parade through downtown Berkeley on the corner of Shattuck Ave. and University Ave. See Transit Times Volume 3, Number 9 to learn more about these ceremonies celebrating the new buses. (1960)

Must have been quite a "cosmopolitan" area judging by the number of small import cars around.

Here's another from the same site: (It's a bus company)

bus yard. (ca. 1965)"

Mart.

 

Blown Chrysler Hemi.

 

In a 64 Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt.
didn't think I had to tell the HAMB it was a Chrysler!

 

You didn't, I was just pointing out that the Hemi was a Chrysler.

 

Here's Lil pete, a veteran NW car.
Started as a factory T-Bolt, ended up a nitro match racer funny car.
