Vintage shots from days gone by!

If they only knew what the bumper exhaust tips are worth today in good shape they would have a coronary!

 

This was posted recently, What a great looking set-up. Wouldn't it be cool to have this today?

 

NW guys! You remember this car?

 

Got me thinking "inside" the box! The one on the hood has some nice knockers.

We moved to Houston from Dallas in August of 1964 and although I was 8 years-old I can remember how great the divided highway was since much of I-45 between Dallas and Houston was still two lane.
