Art & Inspiration Cars and Trucks on a Pole

This one is in Ennis, Montana. I have some other I will post later. Lets see how many we can come up with.

 

Don't have a picture but there is a 35/36 Ford p/u on a pole in Carthage Mo.

 

Don't have a photo but there is a Peterbuilt 10 wheeler truck tractor on a post on the I-10 in Fontana, CA advertising the local dealer. Not HAMB friendly but an impressive fixture never the less.

 

Bozo's Rt.66 Auto Museum in Santa Rosa, New Mexico

 

No picture, there is a sprint car on a post east of Lincoln NE. Bob

 

Of course we all know about this '59 Edsel from the movie "Used Cars"....

 

This was the sign for the old Vineland Speedway in NJ.

I saw a red 55 Chevy (i think it was) years ago in Ohio. I have a photo of it somewhere. I'l have to scan and post it.

 

Hey what the heck has Squirrel got up to now?...

 

In Fort Wayne, IN there used to be a VW bug on a pole which was a popular landmark. Currently I know of a '69 Mustang Fastback on one north of Oxford, AL and a first gen Chevy deuce on one between Macon and Warner Robins, GA at an old car salvage yard.

Back around the late 50s or early 60s, there was a car on a pole, was on it's roof. The business was a repair shop, sign ask something about " does your car turn over in the morning ". Can't remember exactly, was on rt#1 in Edison, NJ

 

I had a buddy that had a buy here pay here back in the 90's and he had a Yugo on a pole. Before everyone carried a camera so I don't have a picture of it. There is a local machine shop that has a Vega on a pole I'll get a picture next time I'm in the area.

 

At the EMMR at York Springs Pa. Home of the Jalopy Showdown.

 

.............Great shot, Ron. I've always said that if someone misses the turn for the EMMR (and Jalopy Showdown), they can't blame anyone but themselves.
