1952-59 Ford Fords from the past.

I know the feeling. This is the steering wheel in my 56 F100 after I put it into a block wall. I walked away with no injuries and went to work the next day.



The rest of the truck.

 

Correct

 

Damn...
What happened to the truck?

 

He hit a roadside approach trying to make a curve at close to 100 mph...

 

My Dad's 56 Meteor Victoria he owned in the early 70's. It was a theft recovery car, he bought it for the recovery cost, which was around $200 back then from the insurance co. Sure wish he still had it today. It ended up in Minnesota somewhere we were told.

 

Setting in my back yard waiting to be fixed.

Those rollbars with no diagonal bracing always struck me as useless.

 

A couple more from a few decades ago...

 

Those 15 cent burgers had a lot better flavor than the cheapy burgers of today and about the same diameter as the bun. Nothing lasts forever

 

You can still get burgers the same diameter as the bun, they're called Krystals. Problem is the bun is a dinner roll...

 

The wife is from Newport,TN stepson lives in Tullahoma I scarfed up on Krystal burgers when we visited there,better than White Castle.
