There was a Johnny Rit's Sports Bar in Buchanan, NY, but it closed in about 2014. Could this be the same location?

 

McKeesport, PA auto show in 1958.

 

Ah yes, shackles. I remember them.

 

Yes so you could fit H60 tires under a stock wheel well. ☺

 

This is the Sears Store back in the 50's located in Champaign,Illinois the Automotive Center was out back on the other side of the parking lot I worked there in the late 60's.

 

It says in 1956 Dearborn, Michigan ordered cop cars in virtually every color Ford offered that year

 

Looks like a basket of Easter eggs. Never saw a police department that used that many colors for patrol cars.

 

Slater, MO 1959

 

Granny's grocery getter.

 

talk about a sleeper close the front and only the 6 emblem showing

 

Hard not to notice all these thin people.

 

rick you forgot to mention the blankety blank tatoos

 

We didn't have so much junk food back then.

 

And the food wasn't GMO modified either when they figured out that they could fatten cattle up sooner and faster to get them to market by using chemicals I guess they thought the people eating the meat wouldn't get "fattened up" too.

 

I wonder if they are flexing in front of the flashest car in the car park like the young ones do today

 

Even way back then, no flipper over the door.

 

No I-6 emblem visible on the fender here. The bulge makes it look like there might be a little more under this hood.
