Those are awesome pics !

 

Not many would know (or care) that inflammable and nonflammable don't mean the same thing.

 

Wonder if any of these 58's still exist either in whole or in parts on another....

 

I really like this shot of Signal Hill in the early 30s. Its been credited to either 1932 or '33 and it's been printed countless times in these little calendars that the local realtors give away every year on our doorsteps here in Long Beach (Signal Hill is a separate city and hill in the middle of Long Beach. I was sent to a military academy that was there when I was a kid) but what's really cool is the little chopped roadster sitting next to the building on the right hand side.

 

help with identifying the car in the background

 

looks like a 36ish mopar, Plymouth possibly.

 

The one that you can see the front of is a 1936 Plymouth.

 

From out of the western sky comes...........

 

McCook, Nebraska:

 

Farmville, NC about 1960

 

Raleigh, NC circa 1940

 

Guy Mendenhall and his homemade car NC State, Raleigh, NC

 

C.E. Bennett's Bottling Works, Salem, NC (now part of Winston-Salem)

 

Wrightsville Beach, NC

 

Like most of you guys on this site,I can name make and year of nearly all the cars and wagons in the early (blurry) photo ,but I can only name a few (Jeep, Crown Victoria ,I think, cop car and Suburban) in the second photo.

 

Clipper and the Songbird are probably back in TX on the Flying Crown Ranch. I believe Sky King (Kirby Grant) later married Penny (Gloria Winters) in real life.

 

Check out the cars in the background

 

Gloria Winters married Dean Stevens Vernon a sound engineer on the Sky King series not Grant.

 

What cars???

 

lol, gotta find ways around the censorship But those Impalas are cool with those chrome reverse rims.

 

This is the Cad I want, so me and 15 of my friends can go driving - and I can tow my little canned ham trailer behind it.
