History Junk Wagon

The in-laws were in town last weekend and that usually means a trip to the Flea Market. I always look through the stacks of old photos for auto related stuff and this time I found this one. This little cut down "T"? caught my fancy.

 

That's pretty stinkin' cool!!

 

This photo kind of dove tails into the thread that asked "when did hot rodding start?"
Pretty early I'd say.

 

love those old shots...cool find

 

I missed that thread, but I would agree that this is pretty damn early.

 

Looks to me like "Little Dave" was tryin' to climb in with the engine.

No wonder he tore his flippin' trousers!

Nice hat, though.

 

its amazing where these old pics pop up. looks like an early hot rodder!

 

Digging through my dad's stuff we found our grandparent's mileage ration card from WWII for their 1940 chevy. We also have some cool pictures of dad as a little boy right in front of the car.

 

Tore the back end out of his trousers and waited for the camera to get the shot for posterity. That IS a hotrodder for sure.
