Vintage shots from days gone by!

the true test! but, a lot of cars had "hill-holders" back then; i have a late-model with it.

 

a lot of 'em in this area taste like iron, but nothing beats spring water...

 

Those are probably General Jumbo wheels and caps.

 

that kid looks pleased as punch to be sitting on that 56 Mercury!

 

Without going through this entire thread, this picture may have been posted before, but it's a cool picture.

 

Nope he lived on the ocean side of the coast highway...north of here.

 

That is a 1955 Mercury... Bumper is the giveaway.

 

... I noticed that the pic was taken in Michigan back in '65 ...
... Wyandotte Michigan looks very much like that still today with small businesses and houses side by side in residential neighborhoods ...

I love that picture. Last year I went around at work and replaced everyone's screen saver on their computers with that one.

 

Villers Motor..... Id like to have that motor. I have a aluminum Villers side cover like that I found in a field

 

The Mercury is a '55.
