    Most of those must be wintertime pics. Anything left unattended here in the south during the summer would be buried in tall grass, poison vines, and or kudzu! And probably snakes and wasps and spiders!

    I took this shot of a '36 Ford Tudor about 40 years ago at a junkyard in Glenview; one day earlier it was more or less intact: 36ford.jpg

    My dad used to work for Pettibone; now and then he'd bring home pictures of his products in use:

    Or where they go to re-drier. Since they may have become appliances in the next life.

    Just old cars then and now...it's progress and planned obsolescents. Cars are throw away today just like back then. Prius, Cadillac, Tesla..etc doesn't matter.

    This one was allegedly (at least I recall it being captioned/noted as) being located in Milwaukee, but no idea which part....East side/Brady Street, maybe?

    Don't know the car, but do know the area. Dad's family owned the flour mill at Wellington. Will send him the photos and see if he knows the car... long shot though.

    Cheers,
    Harv
