A few vintage shots of the past

While digitally roaming, I found a few photos that may be interesting to some.
Respectfully submitted by a rookie poster.....

Well, I guess this is why rookies shouldnt be allowed to post. cant get the photos up....sorry feel free to delete thread....

Well here are the rest....Sorry for the rookie screw up and i'm walking to the corner now to put my dunce cap on...Later

 

nice pics man , i liked the hauler best..

 

yea that hauler is kick ass!

 

...those were worth waiting for...nice pics.

 

Thats my MOM"s Red Wagon !!!

 

cool pics!

 

Man, that pic of the wagon reminds me of my childhood.
Is that a '60 Chevy or am I getting senile?

 

Very cool. Worth the second try. I`m diggin that wagon parked in front of typical 60`s southern Cali home. Too cool, indeed.

 

heres some more cool shots

 

I think I saw that car carrier last week when I was surfing either New Yorks historical photo site, but a more straight on side view.

=Here are a couple gas stations from Indiana. Note the pickup box in one of the shots. That should add some closure to all the folks who can't find the rumble seat. Both shots from around 1945.
-Who says 22's ain't traditional (c1917)? =-)

Nice stuff, post some pics of your wagon. Gary

 

Here's a recent vintage shot I took at the Alter Boys show

 

327, great shot.. is the alter boys a band or the car club? i used to play in a band that played at ralph's quite a bit in the late 80's and early 90's .one of the bands around at the time was the alter boys. just wondering if they were still around. havent been there in a while( i need to get out more) best burgers in town..worm town rocks

 

Hey we all have to start somewhere you know.By the way welcome to the HAMB from another person from Houston.

 

Mmm, the burgers are the best. These Alter Boys rock but they don't play any instruments, it's a band of gearheads. They put on one of the best traditional car shows around. You need to check it out in late Sept. Here's a couple of links to pics..

I like the girl working on the 35.

The car carriers are cool too.

Alter boys show is great!

 

That's Sebastians Ruebo's(sp) car right at the Alters boys show? When I was a kid he was at the Nationals in St. Paul, and the Canadian Nats in Winnepeg 1973? He was crazy...ran around in his underwear all week long.

 

For all you Northern California guys and gals.

The first picture is Capay California somewhere around 1880
The second picture is Winters California in the 1920's

 

Here are some pics....

 

Cool pictures you guys, thanks for sharing.

 

I wonder if this is where the current 26" wheel fad originated ...

 

heres my grandfathers senior picture, class of '57
and my grandfather and grandmother on their wedding day in '59.

pretty cool photos i think!

 

Here are some photos from the Garvin family album. Hope you guys enjoy them, I know I do.

Grandpa under the hood.

Grandpa in the plane.

Grandpa with the Seagrams. LOL

Granpa on the right in the next three pics. Look at the headlights, I think they are blacked out. I thought that was pretty interesting, air raid ready?

 

I beleive they are 1945. The pickup has a sedan back, and the coupe is cut out for a wood box.

garvinzoom, those pics are fucking sweet! that plane looks pretty mangled up. i saw the blacked out headlights and thought "moonshiner!" where you from?

was your grandfather a marine?
