Vintage shots from days gone by!

maby to not scratch them when instaling and removing the
hard top

 

The wrecked '56 Chevy in post 24794 looks like a 210 hardtop. Pretty rare car, even back then.

 

Those are taped on to protect them during transport.

 

LN7 Nut is that the D-Day landing in Europe. What an awsome shot.

 

I haven't researched it yet, I found it on a website full of random images (I suggest not going to that site, it's full of stuff I wish I had not seen)

It's pretty wild, I've never seen this one before.

 

I want to help her with those tire chains!

Scratches and dents are expensive to repair at the dealerships. On some models of new cars there is a dollar threshold and if damage during transport
exceeds that amount a car can be crushed.

I watched a driver unload a transport of mid 80's new cars once. He had the whole rig emptied and the cars parked in minutes. And not a scratch on one.

 

Omaha beach D-Day+1. My dad landed the day before and he's here with me I'll have to show him this pic..

 

Man looks like VT. was better off back then then it is now. Of course the whole country is but still.

 

Chivalry isn't dead, it just has redirected blood flow!

I was so blown away when I found this photo, I had to share it. Look how far the landing craft are on the beach, the tide must be out.

 

VT, billboard free since 1974. I love the Galaxie hardtop.
