And lastly...these are probably not hegge photos but they came in this lot...

 

Here is a picture I took at the Ford pavilion at the 1969 U.S. Nationals in Pomona, Ca of the car in the second picture. The paint was done by Fred Prudoehl out of Winona, Mn but I did not have who owned the car

 

These are fantastic photos. I'm looking for ideas for a model A project. I'd like to go with a mild 60's aesthetic and these pics are definitely inspirational. I'll probably skip the squeeze-bulb horn. Those were really popular on T-buckets weren't they?

 

Great pictures and cars!

 

Cy showed the T and also a '40 Ford coupe when I was in the shows in the mid-60's. He was serious enough about the show circuit to be competing in the race for points standings for the new car award the Larivee circuit offered each year.

 

Awesome stuff. This thread put a nice big smile on my face. Thank you.

 

great photos

 

#33 and #34 John Greer's "Punks Pickup" from Hamilton, Ontario.
I did a lot of the work on this one. Tube frame, air bags rear suspension.
Olds 394. 6 carbs. The body was widened 4" as we had started to build a '32 closed cab pickup. Greer got the T body through Hezzie Armstrong in Rome NY. Painted Candy Tangerine Orange by Gerstener, Buffalo, NY.
This won the points championship in '66 or '67.
Dave Jarvis (eaglebeak)

I just noticed #25, and #29, it is also Greer's car. That outside picture was taken in Gage Park, Hamilton, Ontario. It was on the cover of a magazine July '67. Rod Action?
You will see a very young "me" in the magazine.

 

I don't know if anybody mentioned this but Bob Heege lived in St. Louis and shot a lot of local cars for magazine article in the 50s, 60s, and 70s. I think he died in the 80s.

 

I know this car. It used to belong to a guy in my town. He got drunk one night and rolled it in a ditch. He sold it a few years ago.

 

This car set on a car lot in my area for sale in the late 60's

 

Thank You for sharing these "Visions Back in Time". They are treasures. I really like this picture, that's what I call a "Family Car"!

 

These are great pictures. Thanks for sharing.
