Vintage shots from days gone by!

I'm a big fan of the movie Taxi Driver (1976). Here some behind the scene photos. The Checker Marathon played also a sort of big rol in the movie.

 

I would like to know what's become of the Damms family but I can't find any life magazine aryticle.[/QUOTE]

That is quite an article on that family..will make you very happy for what you have and wonder how they survived it all...very sad

Looks like he uses the same paint scheme on all his cars - patina rust.

 

did you not read on to the drug and child abuse?

Here's one and a cool Willys

 

Love the picture! Except I took the picture in 2002, might not be vintage enough, hahaha! We were setting the spare flathead into this 49 Meteor I sold to a collector in British Columbia. The guy eventually whacked the roof off and put all of his 49 Meteor convertible parts in it. I have seen one picture since completion, and it looks great! I guess my smiling Dad would qualify as vintage??

 

What's the patent here?
"Never leave your scarf, you may need it..."

 

WOW!!---Good EYES!!!

 

Still happening today!!

 

How about that "MERC" grill??????

 

obviously one of the greatest Model T drivers in her day.
