VINTAGE SHOTS FROM DAYS GONE BY! (Part 2)

Indianapolis Motor Speedway, 1939.

 

Henry Ford II in 1948, posing at the Ford plant with newest model Ford car and models A and T, created by his father and grandfather.

 

Definitely a movie worth standing in line for.
The talent for that level of no ratings required with no fowl language, or politically correct BS comedy doesn't exist today.
The actor (Jimmy Durante?) literally kicking the bucket in the opening scene was pure golden comedy.

 

Volkswagens holding up traffic?
I had an MGB like the one in the photo.
Wire wheels with knock-offs before they were illegal.

 

We finally got that car phone we've been wanting.

 

Give it a couple of years kid.

 

Life looks good for this guy!

 

Except you're forgetting BLITZ!!

 

"Hold my beer and watch this!"

 

" I dare ya... TRY to poke my eye out! Betcha can't do it!"

 

Looks like actress Jane Powell, from Portland, Oregon...

 

That's Sherrie Kamp sitting on dad's (Bob Kamp) K-Motion car.

 

<<<<< Now that's a war face!

 

I know no one gives a s**t but I believe that 49 Ford is a 6 cylinder..
