Vintage shots from days gone by!

Probably taken in 1989. Both Tuckers were owned by Bob Bahre for a period of time. I'm sure the original poster meant no harm in putting it up. There are only a handful of people on the planet that could date this photo.

 

Thanks Maggie,

Boats my Dad built were not yacht like at all, more cabin cruiser or runabout type. Sad thing is the only photos of the boats are old B&W that seem to have disappeared My oldest sister "thinks" she may know where some of the old family photos are, I'm hoping. Thanks again to you and all the folks that make this thread so fun.

John

The Solution to all Winter Travel: The Jeffery Quad FWD & The Winther Snow Blower



We have an interesting post up on The Old Motor filled w/neat photos and links all about the Jeffery and Nash Quad four-wheel-drive and four-wheel-steer truck.

We also have a link to a post on The Old Motor all about the Winther Snow Blower seen below.

And finally, full info and photos about the Travel Log motor home seen below, which was made out of a hand-hewn redwood log and carried most of the comforts of home. You can see it all here.

 

If the ladder slips she could knock that guy's eye out!

 

Wow! This is EXACTLY and
PRECISELY what I need (and best
of all, it's Hamb-friendly and
"traditional" even!) after the
big snow storm of the last two
days that pummelled Southern
Ontario and is still hitting the
Canadian Maritime provinces
and large pats of North-East U.S.
Seriously, I hope everybody's OK.
(Are all you guys in the North
East having fun playing in the
snow??!!

ONE GREAT BIG AMEN...the guys posting all the printed magazine ads and travel post cards evidently dont know what a vintage "SHOT" is...or this could go on forever...I think this thread was intended for personal photos of long ago taken by everyday people..

 

Yep EDDIE,----Thats me!--At least I had more hair then!---HA!
We milled the head, ground the cam, & installed a "straight exhaust pipe", & thought I had the fastest Whizzer in town!
Had Dad run alongside on the straight blvd.----Thought I was doing 60,when he yelled thru the open window of the '41 Buick 4 dr. 35 mph!!!
That popped my "Bubble".

Year later traded the Whizzer off for a 1948 Cushman motor scooter to handle 2 paper routes.-----Don

 

The best "Come hither" look I've ever seen!!

 

"Watch out for a fast sideways turn"------Put yer eye out!

 

Can you imagine the explanation/ justification from this senior fire guy (the one sitting in the car) to his chief to get the convertible?
"............. oh, go on chief, we'll be able to jump in it quicker than opening the doors, and, ummmm, we can put a ladder in it easier than on the roof of a sedan, and ummm, we can get these loverley ladies all dressed up in red coats and hats and white boots and gloves, and then we can get them to ......................"
Sure, he's had to put up with the signs on the doors, including the Texaco sponsorship, and the lights and sirens, but hey, he's the maaaaannnnnnn!!!! (plus he got all those babes in this cool pic with him).
Haha.

 

my car is exactly the same as the red Wildcat on the left

amazing thread,i'm on page 255,thanks for sharing those time capsule

 

Roger that! Like the old saying goes "some would complain if they were hung with a new rope..." I never did . Great stuff here, great mix, pics, ads, postcards... all vintage and with enough variation to satisfy most.

 

Not exactly the same but I got a '67 LeSabre as part of the 'deal' when I got married in the early 70s. That car was a tank, it had that somewhat oddball Buick 340 4bbl in it. Kind of a sleeper cuz it could move out. Ended up as a derby car at the local fair in 1982 or '83.

 

Don, that is June Palmer again. Google her for a LOT of pics, some with a LOT less clothes on. Quite the crowd pleaser.
