VINTAGE SHOTS FROM DAYS GONE BY! (Part 2)

...

 

Typical ‘Ugly American’ amidst the refined Europeans.

 

Let alone nearly running over Fido there...

 

" Why do you like this place"? …." Beats me..."

 

Praying for a new design team

 

Sign is in focus.....DeSoto is in view...…….CLICK

 

Spaniards and Mexicans?

 

Hanging them out to dry LOL

 

Yes Life did a whole photo shoot with the 49 Fords and a bunch of models.

 

Reminds me of the scene from the movie Catch 22 where Martin Balsam and Jon Voight ignore the crashed bomber while they discuss their scheme to sell eggs.

 

Curious junkyard find

 

What kind of weird ass wheels on the prop bicycle ?

 

Hmm...…….Connie Stevens ??

 

" No thank you officer....I`m driving..."

 

Possibly blocking two '60 Plymouths...

 

Rootie Welcome back..Who is the #10 car

 

Got some pics of my dad's old pics:

Here's his old 58 Vette dual quad 3 speed terror (so I've heard stories) from 1963:






Couple shots of his old Riv:




Here's his 59 Vette he traded his 58 for (this one is still in the family). He cracked it up after a night of drinking. Did all the glass repair work himself. The man could lay some glass!! Before and after pics> I have a bunch of pics of the damage and repair if anyone is interested.




His old Chevy wagon. Dig the old Colonial dealer badge!!



The man himself, beer in hand:

 

Spider Webb

 

" Spider Webb " is a much better name for a racer than " Dick Trickle"

 

Ours was LUcerne 1-2898.

 

Looks like ugly Plymouths have invaded Jerusalem!
At least 3 60's and a '61!

 

1939
