    Wait a minute - what's that in the upper left corner? Zoom in all the way:

    Neat little channeled roadster - note the cut-down doors and canted '39 Ford taillights. Anyone know this car?
    Final part coming up.

    And finally Part 7. Time to grab a little liquid refreshment:

    And let's check out the local art scene:

    (Honest - this, including the Buick, is a sculpture en***led "Growth".)

    And finally, I'd like to give a shout out to the many photographers who saved these little moments in history, going back to the days when they had to use those delicate gl*** negatives that were very easily... oops...

    Thanks to the H.A.M.B. for putting up this thread (and putting up with my attempts at humor). ;)

    An Aussie Holden Station Wagon 1958 but this picture must be reversed as it looks like it is left hand drive.
    I don't think we were exporting LHD back then.

     
  8. I'm trying to see if the numbers on the license plate are reversed - it's hard to tell. I pulled the photo directly off the interwebbies, so it certainly could be wrong side round.

    Edit: I blew it up as much as I could - If I'm right, most auto companies didn't capitalize the last letter of the car name, so most likely it's reversed.

    This one had me going - thought it was the U.S. until I saw the Vauxhall PA Cresta, so I thought Canada until I saw the short-tail Falcon wagons. Checked out the sign - Smiggin Holes, NSW, Australia!

    Yep!
    Love the mountain ski photos you're posting. Here's a couple I have from the Otto Sauseng estate, Aspen 1964:

    I'd like to see this modified into a baby Nomad.
