History Old school, really old,

Things were different in 1957, no wonder I'm a car guy, that's me with my mom and dad, no seat belts or car seat and someone handing him a beer

I was one of those 50's kids whose folks never owned a car so I have no fond memories of those times but boy did I make up for it when I finally got my licence.

 

My parents are both alive and really enjoyed the 8 mm movies I had put on dvd

yep, a wonderful time back "in the day" - look at the extreme lack of safety in race cars then compared to now - makes ya think

 

Sorry Calvin, didn't intend on sounding negative, thanks for the video.

 

'27 on '32 rails?

 

My wife was the last of 4 kids, she rode on the rear package tray of her Dad's Hudson!

 

27 on 32 rails is right, from lansing mi, he sold it shortly after that, not really a family car, I'd sure like to track it down but that seems impossible

Great pictures. I can remember Mom yelling at dad about the Copenhagen snuff spit along the left side of the car all the time.
Also remember hood surfing in the 60’s.

 

I'd love to see a more clear shot of that car, looks like a really cool car back then! Anymore photos or a better scan of that photo it's clear in-person?
