Vintage shots from days gone by!

Back to the Beach, last one of the bunch..

 

Beach shoes? All there is to look at in that pic and you wanna look at beach shoes??

 

Well, it was about an hour before I noticed the shoes.

 

Back in the day they did'nt have "The Club" or car alarms for anti-theft devices.
They just used "The Dog".
Thanks SWI66, as usual; another great batch of photos from the past.

 

That steering wheel looks mighty uncomfortable.

 

Oh, that makes more sense. Here's a couple more that'll keep you going for a few hours.

 

In 1912, a group of four men and a dog, dubbed the "Pathfinders," set out in a 20-horsepower Flanders Studebaker to promote the Good Roads program and to highlight the need for better roads along the Central Oregon coast.

thanks once again, Gary, especially these vintage car show pics are awesome, the cars, displays and love to details is amazing, not to forget that lots of the exhibitors were backyardbuilders back in the days. just like lots of us.
keep on posting good stuff, enjoying each of 'em!

Cheers , Carsten

Oh and it looks like Ronald Reagan is tuning up for a run in the Aug 55 Issue too.
Hope he doesn't forget where he puts the parts if you know what we mean !
And take a look at that 392 Hemi. So what's going on with fuel rail throttle body induction setup !!
