Vintage shots from days gone by!

July 4th,1954 French GP. Reims-Gueux road circuit.
M-B unveiled their streamlined W196 and placed 1st and 2nd. Third "Silverarrow" set fastest lap before retiring due engine trouble.
Ascari's 250F Maserati #10 lasted just one lap. Six cars crossed the final line.

Anyone ID that second truck, the one with the short snout?

 

Ford, Fordson or Thames E83W.

I think here in the UK they are a Thames, may have been called something else in other territories.

Google E83W in Images, should throw up some more pics.

Mart.

 

Thanks Mart. "You are correct, sir!"

Had not seen that one over here before but it's mighty cute. Especially for a Furd.

Don't know if i want to be the one to fire or the one with the vest???

 

Was someone upset with customer service?

 

They must've thought it had a slide-out

I'm guessing maybe it happened as result of a tornado?

This last picture with all the '57 Chevys got me to thinking. Somewhere someone must have traded in an old '32 Ford for a new Rambler.

 

88298 is 1977 Johnstown, Pa. Flood

The caption says last train of the Appalachian Railway.

 

5th Infantry Division rolled into Albion, Indiana on August 25, 1941. The narrative goes on to say that this Division landed at Utah Beach on D-Day.

Is this kelloggs plant in San Leandro, Ca ??

 

cool

 

Gulf Mobile and Northern Railroad's Rebel locomotive power in New Albany, Mississippi. The caption says 1930's and these particular locomotives were bought in 1935. The railroad was merged in 1940, so that should be close to correct.

 

Sure looks like it. I'll be in the area tomorrow. If I think about it I'll try to go by and take a picture from the same spot.

 

Yes, that appears to be a '40 Chev so maybe sometime from Fall of '39 until the RR merged. Thanks for the photo, I was unaware of these locomotives and at first glance thought it might be one of the articulated Zephyrs, but I see that it is not. Quite interesting.

 

Panties????

 

Cool video. At 2:32, is that a fender-less roadster sitting behind the service station?
