Vintage shots from days gone by!

I had one of those (59 El Camino)...even in red.
It's a BIG car...

Here's a nice vintage shot from the National G eographic archives.

 

OK, I pulled together another bunch from various archives in California, Georgia, Arkansas, North Carolina and Louisiana along with a few from other places; I really don't think any have been here before.
Part 1:

 

Part 2:



















Wait a minute. What the hell is that thing? Zoom in a bit:


Wow. More coming...

Part 3, looks like we've had a bit of weather...

(Hurricane Audrey, 1957)




















(Eww. ) But wait, there's more...

 

Part 4:







(Look close - RHD export model)


(Look even closer - rare early version; fender badge reads "NKI Custom")












How about a little color for a change? OK:

(Hand-tinted? Nice job of it, if so.)
Last batch coming...

 

Part 5:





















OK, that's about enough - one more for the road?

That's not quite what I meant...
All right swi66, you take over - it's about two weeks past my bedtime.

 

62 EJ Holden sedan vs 63 EH wagon.
Victorian from the number plates. Not sure where - maybe bayside suburb, or up 'round Preston or even out near Sunshine - dunno. Maybe someone will recognise it.
My first car was an EJ Holden with a 186 red motor. Rego number was HRL-750. Good old girl.
Thanks for posting.

 

Wow!----Those old artists concepts were really off the wall!

 

Oops!

The two guys immediately to the right of the car seem to find the whole thing vastly more amusing than the person in the drivers seat!

Mart.

 

is that a dealer plate? Probably thinking, "I'm fired"

 

LOL yeah, probably, I hadn't noticed that.
