Art & Inspiration Off Brand Cars

I’m sorry in advance if this has been done before but I’m curious about what ( if any) non Ford, Chrysler, Chevrolet vehicles you guys gravitate towards. To start, here we have a 1928 Stearns-Knight.

'50 Olds, if it's ''off'' enough. Willys for sure, and Kaiser / Henry J

 

I have no problem with that.

I really like Packards from the late 30,s to late 40,s. Snowman

 

I'm a fan of AMC products. AMC, Nash and Hudson.

 

I have a soft spot for Packards and International Harvester.

My family's '49 Super 8.


A random internet pic. But we do own a OT Scout 800 and a few IH V8's

 

I can't get enough of that blue

That little bantam pickemup is cuter than a bugs nuts

 

Let's try grayscale on that Nash and clear it up a little:

 

Crosley,Studebaker,Henry J. Love Cord but missed out on one. Still have my 1959 high school hot rod 28A bob tailed roadster. Love old used station wagons,have had 18,an one of them was a old used 57 Rambler I got for $25<that clean up very well,but had zero spair tire or spot to even put one,only a patch kit under rear seat like a bike.

 

Thanks Stanlow69. I have never heard a Carson top called a Chavez top. And for that matter I never heard of a car planed. I always heard nosed and decked. Can anyone educate me?

1 more car I promise, Rex Winter
Dry n windy Lubbock TX

 

Studebaker, of course...

 

Studebakers, mostly 53 and later, but the 40 and back look good, too. Never cared for the bulletnosed years....

 

I know that Studebaker has been mentioned...but how about a Studebaker...Conestoga ?

I like the off makes, best bit is not many have them and you are usually the only one at a show. Bad bit is finding parts.

 

A top that looks like a Carson styled top are automatically called a Carson top. No matters who makes them. Here is another car with a top done by Chavez. Sorry not an orphan. Not sure what Plan ed is.

 

Any style Duesenberg does it for me. Class, speed and power. Probably one of the few American cars I wouldn't change if I had one. Quite a few foreign ones too, but I won't mention them here.

 

This is my all time favorite Studebaker, might have some thing to so with the big Buick power

 

I had an Opel one time for a few months, it wasn't a foreign car when I owned it as Uncle Sam had sent me to Germany on "vacation" at the time

 

Non-Ford/Chev/Chrysler/mainstream cars are what gets & holds my attention.

1951 Hudson Commodore coupe 6 had one like this for 5 years.but not in such good condition as the one in the pic.

 

Auburn Speedster 1934, fiberglass copy was for sale here in Sweden 1 week ago....I was thinking about it 1 day too long,so I missed it.Not the car in the pic.
