Art & Inspiration The passage of time.

88 year old running boards.

Feel free to add your photo's. HRP

 

That is not store bought... Love that pic Danny...

 

Very artistic, the B+W really make the shot.

Credit where credit is due, this photo was taken by Tom Hassel (seadog) several years ago. HRP

 

I thought you had a pic of yourself to show.

 

That might make the internet crash, I'm just the average old fart. HRP

 

Would like to see the fake patina guys duplicate this finish.

 

Mark, Man that running board looks amazing and doesn't show it's age one bit, it goes without saying someone took good care of your 40 over the years HRP

 

Only 40,000 miles?

That's like 2,000 miles a year, Holy Cow! HRP

 

Apparently Scotty B's isn't too far away...........

 

Been sitting a long,long time. HRP

 

The original sales invoice for Taboo, was shocked to see it in a box of stuff given to us when we bought the car back. Still looks like it was just typed out yesterday.

 

Well, it use to be. HRP

 

Danny,I think about how time has gone by when I look at my tub, it really hasn't aged but I have.

 

A little Armor All and they'll be good as new

 

They have a good soaking with a product like armor all, that's why they look this good. HRP

 

LOL. I guess the next logical step would be roofing tar...

 

I'm old enough to remember seeing Model A's with the top insert gobbled up with roofing tar, man what a mess. HRP

 

Oh yeah. The first Model A coupe body I bought back in the 70's had part of a old BF Goodrich sign "glued" to the roof opening with an ungodly amount of roofing tar.

 

Danny, is drakes store still a used as a landmark when giving directions out your way, when i first moved south his place was the only place that had gas on that country road?

 

John, George Drake was a well know man out that way, many times I have heard, " go out Centerville Road until you get to Drakes Store and turn right or left"

George died a long time ago but they still use the old building as a point of reference, the sell Christmas Trees there every year.

I found this photo that was taken in the late 60's several years ago, no telling how many gallons of gas George pumped. HRP

 

Survivor built in the early 60’s outta California. Took these pics at Deuce days last year.
