'30 Cabriolet doodlebug, will get to it someday (maybe). Bob

 

Hmmm....A big back window, deluxe cab, AND a factory V8. Cool.

 

I wonder which engine that is? My 57 Chev crane has a Buick Nailhead.

 

Most of the GMCs in the states had Pontiac motors but the larger trucks like a semi had Olds motors.

 

Same here in Canada, but I have been finding a lot of them with Buick engines too. But I have never heard of it.

 

How about some Mopars?

 

I know of some Mopars too.

 

I thought I read that the big Chevy trucks down here got the Buick motors but never seen one.

 

Got any old Vauxhalls up there?

 

Not sure where or when this was taken but I would like to have it.

 

Same here, but I have seen 2, one is in this field in the middle of nowhere Saskatchewan, and the other is in my back yard... I have been trying to get the one in Sask since 07... maybe one day I will.

I love the rare and unusual, and you are right,m rare almost never equals valuable, but I could hardly care about value, if my car was valued at $1 I would still love it and drive it and keep it nice!

A fun comparison to me is that my 46 Ford Glass-top bus is a lot rarer then a Duesenburg J (1 of 44 built, 1 of 9 in 46) but I bet it's value is very low... and I really don't care to know either.

Sure do, European cars were sold here for the most part, Renault, Fiat, Austin, Vanguard, Vauxhaul etc.
We even got some German stuff too, I have a pair of 1959 German Ford Taunus 12 M Super's at home!

 

great thread

 

The license plate is a 1964 issued plate.

 

More.

 

And then...

 

curious if you could get the body side moldings off of it my girlfriends 50 pontiac needs them

 

And some more...

 

More more more... All of these are my own photos BTW, I have over 20 000 photos on my computer that I have personally taken.

 

All of this is local to me.

 

I think this will be my last for tonight.

 

Sure could make good use of that passenger door from the '58 Ford for my Gasser project! It looks good from far anyway!

couldn't help it, spotted this the other week.

 

Nice little 37, technically a one-owner since it was supposedly parked in its current position by the original purchaser before he passed. Family won't part with it... yet

 

Fantastic shot!

 

There isn't many words to go with these pics. Is there any info? Or a way to buy one of these complete closed cab '30/'31s? Very nice stuff at any rate!

 

yer killin' me here dog!!! (Was a shot of a '57 Ranch Wagon)
