Vintage shots from days gone by!

From the Old Motor website:​

Ron, THANKS for mentioning The Old Motor. Any HAMBers not familiar with Dave's site will be floored. Just be sure to search "TheOldMotor.com"

 

That dude under the car sure is tall!

 

With Mr. Drysdale at the Clampets abode, Miss Jane decides its time to relax with a joint.

 

My uncle was on the local fire station's team when I was young. I remember going to the comps to watch with my grandfather who was an Ex Firefighter from the same station.
But damn they didn't have any trucks as cool as these, Wow these things are almost works of art!!

Doc.

 

"Watcha' mean NOT HERE"!!!!!

 

The first Dump Bed didn't quite work out

 

So cool, a nice pic of the Ogren Six. This car was made in Milwaukee. During a period between the 1890s and the 1930s, there were forty firms making autos in Milwaukee. Kinda reminded me of the Kissel, another Wisconsin car, but made in Hartford.

 

Whats up with all these buckin' trucks

 

I'm pretty sure one of these guys went on to become famous...

 

Truck is clearly poppin a wheelie!

 

One bag too many. Note to self; Must change spindle mounts and get heavier front tires!

 

A little fishing from days gone by. Looks like success doesn't depend on how you're dressed or where you are.

 

Nice catch! But I am flummoxed by the car, especially the bumper guard
(sort of Packard-ish) and the tail light (sort of MoPar-ish). Anybody?

 

I would say 49 Plymouth.

 

They look like mackerel to me.

 

Bakersfield, CA, some time after the 1952 earthquake.

 

Nope. 49 Plymouth had 3 ribbed bumpers, I'm saying Dodge or De Soto
