Vintage shots from days gone by!

Very cool!

 

They will put your eyes out!!

 

Saw this on Mr Google. Mentions both names of the same car and says 1952.
Grille looks a little different, but body looks same.

This page however calls it the Packard Macauley Speedster. Year given of 1952.

Neat looking piece of machinery though. I would love one.

Hoodlums and their loud cars!

 

Walpolla, I saw the double name on conceptcarz too - don't have a copy of the Kimes history on Packard, but if I remember correctly, the McCauley was never mentioned as the Panther, simply the McCauley Packard.

I hesitated to use the conceptcarz blurb, because of the mistakes, but that was the first one I could find

 

Amsterdam 1960

 

Most likely, I love the little caravans, so charming.

 

Fantastic shots. A lot of neon perhaps?

 

But its on the Internet, so it MUST be right, yeah? NOT !
You sound like you know more about it than me, so I will be quiet now.

 

Just a few random shots today from the early 60's.

 

"Well aged" hoodlums ???

 

Insect collectors in Thailand?

 

Damn!----I know my roadster was in the thick of lakes racing, but never knew who owned it back then.
All the pix shown here, it could have been one of them, when I bought the body, frame, & 4 fenders in 1962, it came from city of Orange,Ca.
The body looked like most of the '32's in these pix, filled in cowl, side lights, door handles, '39 teardrop rear lights, license plate holes between the teardrops, & large roll bar mounts in the trunk.
Six years of building when we lived in Torrance, Ca.
Removing all body paint down to bare metal, it revealed red, yellow, maroon, & the original Ford green.

Man do i love checking out this thread. Thanks to all who share some awesome pics here.

Can someone identify the cars of the Idaho Candy Co.? It's the third photo in post # 100,627. I believe i saw a coupe version of one of those drive by me this past weekend. Thanks.

Amsterdam 1952

Amsterdam 1950

Haarlem 1954

 

Looks like 1936/7 Hudson Terraplane . I've seen pickups but never sedan deliveries.

 

These sportsmen have a '60 Ford 2-door Country Sedan that I am more envious of than their load of birds.

 

Draftee? Or more likely leaving for college.
