My grandfather may have sold them, my mom had a Simca convertible when she met my dad. I know he sold Land Rovers and Toyopets

 

^^^^^^ I feel sorry for the auctioneer in that last picture. Judging by the cars,there weren't any big spenders (except maybe the Chrysler guy) in the audience

 

San Cobble, I remember it well:

Here is a shot of me leaving the line for a solo run.

 

That run did not turn out well......

 

Buff out?

 

Back again with a few new ones from the Otto Sauseng estate. He and his new bride honeymooned in the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico in October 1963:

 

Parts?

Jury-rigged though it may have been, this B&HR Railbus #3, pictured here at Bridgton Depot, served its purpose well - with the help of some "down-home Yankee ingenuity." The little bus was built with little money and little materials. Faced with an embattled cash problem, the Narrow Gauge crew concocted the self-propelled "contraption" in an early demonstration of the concept of recycling. Using a Chevy Sedan and substituting some light sheet-iron wheels under the front and more wheels under the rear and a "trailer" behind, with its own set of wheels (that had once been used on old boxcars), the rail workers were able to inspect and maintain tracks at a low cost. (One observer noted the only recognizable part was the "Chevrolet radiator!")

 

New Hampshire sure is a nice part of the country to live in.

I used to love to visit the state and I still have many great memories from Hart's Turkey Farm and the great food they served. Clarke's Trading Post was another favorite place to stop and check out the bears.

The Ole Man of the Mountain and the Cog Railroad were also great places to stop.

I wanted to move to North Conway 22 years ago but my wife would keep reminding me of how cold it got in the winters so we settled on the west coast of Florida instead.

Beautiful state for sure. Jimbo
