The Russians started building these in the early 1930s.

 

55 or 56 Olds hardtop

 

Thats a 57 Olds

 

Do any of you have, or know of a complete dash for a 57 Olds in the western half of the country? I'd like to have one for my 57 Buick century. Much better looking panel.

 

I found this in a town in the Snowy Mountains 2003. Not 100% sure what it was but I dragged it home and ended up selling it. Going on the shape, its an early thirties Roadster.

 

A better shot of the other side of it, sitting next to a Sedan door that I also found in the same town at another location.

 

One theory to its iden***y I had was that it might have been one of these. Had I had any common sense, I would have hung onto it got some measurements and contacted a few clubs. What ever it was, it’s extremely rare !

 

1957

 

I found this one laying in a Gully not far from home. I ended up getting it along with the remains of a 37/38 Willy’s Sedan for $100 and ended up trading them for half a 34 Chev hood.

 

^^^^ Vauxhall ute ??? ^^^^

 

You are close, it’s actually a Bedford.

 

I found some more photos of the mystery roadster.

 

A battered Jailbar in Mariposa.

 

Blink and you will miss them, On the drive between Mariposa and Redding I saw these, doing 70mph there was no opportunity to stop due to the heavy traffic. The image is a bit hazy but it looks a 33/34 Tudor and a couple of late 30s convertible, the one at the back looks like a 37, the one in the middle a 36 ?

Mars Rover....finally sitting and rotting after 15 years service. At least it won't have bullet holes in it when someone finds it.

 

I hope a Martian finds, and saves it. Then takes off those wide tires, and puts on some skinny's with WWW's!
