VINTAGE SHOTS FROM DAYS GONE BY! (Part 2)

Somewhere around 1959-60 that hardware store building was a Army/Navy surplus store.
My dad bought me a single shot 32-20 rifle there on one of our trips to Reno.
I don't know what happened to it, but I do remember a kangaroo on the side of it.
Going to Army/Navy surplus stores was just as much fun at that time as going to Western Auto.

 

Ron, these photos you have been posting are AWESOME...

I got in for under 12 until I was 16! 50 cents paid for a ticket and a pigout at the candy counter.

 

Buellton Ca. Ate there many times and stayed in their Motel.

 

Napco pickup....

 

As a boy I wanted one of "those". Now as a grown man I still want one of "those"
note: the focus of the "those" may have changed slightly over the years

Choppers with forks like that were evil handling things at low speeds

 

We are a manufacturer, fully aware of the issues. Put down the crack pipe.
