Vintage shots from days gone by!

Nestle' is a Swiss company.

 

Yes, 230 standard trany's were the base engine in all models. Only hi-po V8's had dual exhaust.

 

I think you mean the venerable 235 Chev 6!

 

Yes C57123456 c= BelAir if it was a V-8 it would be VC57123456

B57123456 B=210 if it was a V-8 it would be VB571234456

A57123456 A=150 if it was a V-8 it would be VA57123456

Oh yes! I'm sitting back, spent! I knew they still existed just never saw a new photo of one! I would have killed for this pic when I was building the models, just this one solves a lot of questions I had back then!
I may have to look these kits up again! (Damn I'm such a Nerd!)
Thanks for the pic!

75 years ago today, Waite Phillips donated the land which became Philmont Scout Ranch. As a former staffer at Philmont, I salute Waite Phillips.

Yes indeed I Nestle was / is located in Switzerland that borders France. There was also a Corvair assembly plant in Biel Switzerland. The matching outfits and hats that the kids are wearing also reflects the area so we can pretty much say it is from that area. Still trying to determine where? I have one guy insisting that the photo is an illustration but I am used to that, I am also accused of photoshopping adults into my Junior cars because people just can't believe that an adult can fit.

 

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

This is the car that's in the Henry Ford Museum in Detroit, isn't it? I've been there a couple of times - I cannot speak highly enough of the place as a storage of important 20th century history.

 

1964 Chevrolet Corvair Children's Car Photo is all the info I have on this.
