Thanks for clarifying. Nitrobrother thot I misunderstood your post.

 

"....some dings and dents. low miles. local pickup only..."

 

The big sedan closest to camera is a 1928 Studebaker FA series President, Studebaker's first straight eight; 313 cid and five main bearings, replaced a year later by a new nine bearing 337 cid version in the FB series.

 

The 'limo' is a circa 1929 Checker landau taxi.

 

Built from a cut down (Buick-built) Marquette sedan.

 

This one has been discussed somewhere else. From memory it is a late production American Underslung with later fenders fitted. Note the front ch***is irons. It might be one of the 50 or so left when the company went bust in 1914 and sold later by another company.

 

Can anyone here give me an I D on this car ? Sorta looks like an Oakland

 

The gasoline pump closest to the curb appears to be a Tokiem 620

 

I've never seen these photos before. Look how far the steering column and wheel have been pushed across the car - it's almost RHD by the looks. No wonder James Dean didn't make it after being t-boned.

 

Painful just to look at.

 

Now what could POSSIBLY go wrong with that setup?

 

Bob Hope driving what looks to me like a Buick. Dunno who the others are - the wife and kids........???

 

Ha!!!

 

tell yer mom, "Bob said Hi"

 

'59 Buick. Buick was a sponsor of Hope's show for a number of years.

 

I need a last name Bob and you can see me a message if you like because if you are from the racing days seems the names were remembered by last names . I wrote a theard on the tradional website forum it's called Gary Essman check it out

 

HEY !! I was trying to be a smart Alec. I thought she was real cute !!

seems like a lot of girls from that era look alike, She actually looks like my ex-wife.

 

Okay no problem my Dad had a friend named Bob back in the day . I was wondering if it was him
