VINTAGE SHOTS FROM DAYS GONE BY! (Part 2)

1953 Corner of Canal & S Cabot Sts Holyoke

 

navel air base, Corpus Christi TX '42 ~

 

Pine street San Francisco Cal . RADIO KYA great sounds.

 

Just my personal opinion, but I think ALCO's look more attractive than the GE's

 

Radio KYA, 1260.

 

KFRC ..

 

I bet that is Orange County before it was destroyed . Saddleback mtn in the background

 

route 66, the later years !!! Buz and what his name ?

 

I bought the next 14 photos at a yard sale. The guy said his father was a lawyer who dealt with car accidents.

 

Interesting hood hinge and stay on that vehicle. Anyone know what it is?

 

^ '38 Hudson.

 

1957 Mercury Monterey Mermaid

 

Cord 810







One for hemidav

 

Bobby Langley Strange Scoop?

 

This big black beauty is a 1931 Checker Model M. Notice the unusual front fender shapes and the rear-only running boards.

 

This Ike's lady chauffeur that he was allegedly "Well acquainted with" ??

Looks like a '56 Harley K model
Gear shift is on the right side of the bike, rear brake is on the left; this is reverse of every bike I have ever owned.
I believe the reason for this configuration is for Harley to sell more transmissions as I smash them during a panic stop.

 

Do you mean the GM EMD E & F series?
I always preferred them but still like the ALCO's as well.
