Vintage shots from days gone by!

....and so begins the Wednesday afternoon rush to the local Bingo Hall...

 

I sold Louie a 270 cam and solids in 1961 and bought a Sharp rocker cover for a 235 Chev 6. His place was well known in Santa Monica, Culver City and Inglewood.

 

Didn't make Parklanes in 55 but this 55 is damn close. I don't remember any 55-56 with script in front of the side trim. It was always in the Vee or back near the tail light on the sides.

 

I see at least Packard and Allison V-12's!

 

Rum Running

 

I swear there was an engine in there when I parked it.
