Odd request-- hot rod accident phots..

Hey guys wondering if anyone can help me out -- my band is in the middle of getting our CD put together and I am looking for some cool old car accident photos -- nothing to graphic -- you know the cool old black and white ones.
Any help is appreciated.

Someone on here not to long ago posted a slide show of old 30s 40s and 50 wrecks..hollywood423

 

Go to Chevybombs.com and look for a thread in the forums called "sadness" There's a bunch of them in there. One I like in particular where an AD pickup truck is totally squashed under a train, it's a sweet pic.


Edit: Keep in mind that pictures are property that belong to people and you really need to get permission to use a picture on an album.

 

Check out AT THE SCENE OF THE ACCIDENT at Moes Garage.

Can anyone tell what #18 is?? I can't tell!

 

Here's a link to a few from the '40s and '50s.

How about this...

 

I started a thread about this a few years ago. The link to the car crash book is in the original post. The book is called 'Car crashes and other sad stories', published by Taschen. All large b&w vintage wreck photos, very little gore.

There's also a few photos posted in that thread.

 

I hope this is what your looking for. I found this on line at the Winfield High School, Winfield, KS. web site. There are other cool pictures there from 1958.

 

Not old....but holy F*%$ing shit would this hurt....
If i remember right...the guy was alright, as hard as it is to believe

 

I figured whoever was in that '28 that was posted, would be dead.

 

For some reason I'm gettin a case of the red x's on the Chevybombs page -- lotsa cool pics and links thanks guys.
No need to worry about me stealing an image the upright bass player in the band is a graphic designer by trade and he is always sure to get the proper permission and such before he does anything -- I wouldnt want someone ripping off our songs and see the photos and art in the same way.

 

Hey antichatter,,,...

I just noticed that you are from the state of Alberta, Some say Alberta is the biggest state and has more oil than Texas???


Are you from the Northern Part or??

Got any extra oil?


???

 

MOEFUZZ,Alberta is a province,Canada doesn't have states.

 

Any more info on this? Looks like a fatality but from what I can read of the story the driver had non life threatening injuries. Lucky guy!

 

How about the shoebox that did James Dean in...

 

Here is a photo of a photo from Ford Life.
If that was me in the photo, I 'd smoking that pack of Lucky's in the gutter.

 

I dig the two tone, the wide whites and the skirts on the deathmobile.

 

And you think they didn't go fast on dirt tracks in the 1920's...

 

A couple posted by Jet Fuel a while back.

The kid in the model A roadster is the son of a friend of mine. He made out ok in the accident. He and his passenger survived. The A was a hiboy with hemi power. His Dad has a blown flathead powered 32 2-door tub. This pic is of a 48 coupe that hit a moose, also in BC. He survived as well and used the chassis from this one to build a nice 41 ford business coupe after he swapped bodies. Pat.

Oh Yeah....

I posted these before,.... This was Bob Vivian's A-V8 summer 1954 after being hit the night before by a drunk passing on a hill from a oncoming lane, 9 Mi. Rd. Farmington Mi.

 

This 1932 3W coupe photo was originally posted here on the HAMB by someone else a while back. I believe it was TOMMY but I am not positive ... I do remember the poster saying that the coupe has been rebuilt and looks like nothing ever happened.

 

Ow , that’s going to take a stitch or three

 

My recent accident. HRP

 

Is there anyone else who took driver's ed in the late '50s-early '60s that had to sit through "Signal 30"? It was supposed to scare us into being good drivers.

 

In a similar vein, the book Car Crashes & Other Sad Stories is filled with vintage images of car accidents, some of them gory. I paged through it long ago, and IIRC the images were taken by newspaper photographers in the 1950s?

 

I had to watch that in drivers Ed in the 1980’s.
