Vintage shots from days gone by!

For thousand pages and I've seen them all. There were some great posters that were on here that either faded away, got Banned or just ran out of material, I thank you all. Think I'll go back and start over.

 

Thanks Mart, thought that would be obvious to everyone, guess not. Cheers Chevbucket.

 

Can't believe I've looked through 4000 pages of history ...... and I wasn't too good with history at school.

 

Right you are! BIG DEAL!
I just love the guys whose ONLY contributions here are to cry "photoshop" or point out someone was fooled by a contemporary photo. The photo Police in action! LOL

 

I like to throw in a photochop every now and then for shits and giggles.

 

If it includes a body like that who could possibly complain? hers not the car.

 

Hey Rootie, Would you have anymore information on this one? Don't know why. Just can't stop staring at it.

Sorry I don't, other than the shot was taken at the Prescott hillclimb in the U.K. late 40s early 50s.

 

Victoria B.C. Canada ABC Chimney service trucks

 

Bugatti,bugatti,bugatti, but what is that foremost?
ps really like your posts, Mr Kazootie, there is at least one that grabs me every time ...

 

I like the ones that cry about someone submitting a shot they sent in six years ago or a photo they took in 1962, sheesh, get a life!

 

Stand back he's going to do a burnout! And before the Photo Shop police start complaining yes the burnouts sign on the truck has been enlarged!! Also the picture has been cropped.

 

Been offline since September. Finally caught up. Great stuff everybody. Thanx...

 

Not the parts that matter.

 

These are shots of my brother-in-law's father's service station. He had buildings on both sides of
Cicero Avenue a little south of 31st Street in Chicago

 

When you make these comments about what in your opinion is "ugly" you should bear in mind that this is very subjective so what is the point? It certainly doesn't mean a thing to me that you think something is ugly or not.

 

I have also enjoyed all 4000 pages. But they have made me realize I was born in a good year 1946 so enjoyed the 1950s and 1960s, but I was born in the wrong country.

 

I would rock that red Plymouth with pride! Imagine walking into a parking lot and being able to find your car! Yeah!

Whenever I drive my mother in law's car, I have to go row by row until I find the darn thing.... LOL

Standing next to a 1926 Packard, he doesn't look so tough, does he? But this is Wyatt Earp.

I can picture him standing there with his hand on his holster instead of in his pocket. Plus it's hard to imagine all the changes that his generation witnessed.

 

I reckon he was still a bad ass at that time.

 

Wyatt Earp had an "interesting" career to say the least, and was well known for a lot more than the Gunfight at the OK Corral. He had been arrested many times: for prostitution in Illinois, for horse stealing in Kansas, for burglary in Arkansas, for claim jumping in Idaho, for attacking a law officer in Alaska and for bunco steering in Los Angeles. And of course, he was still wanted for murder in Arizona. The murder warrant out for his arrest in Arizona kept him out of that state for the rest of his life.
