My grandmother, with "her'' two cars..., Medford, Oregon....I LOVED to visit her!!! She was actually a pretty decent, small engine mechanic too!!

 

Anne certainly was thin.

 

Diggin' all the great pics everyone is posting.

 

I think the best pictures are the families next to their cars. I'm not a contributor but a consumer so thanks to everyone who post.

 

Firengine . this thread requires BOTH ! I comment on subjects I have firsthand knowledge of and on occasion , I have contributed a few shots from my own life

 

I think I'd rather ride my bike down the older version of the street.

 

Can anyone with a sharp eye identify that red sports car at the Roadside rest?

When I was a kid we used to stay at Swiss Chalet motels driving from CT to ME, if Dad got tired we stopped, otherwise we drove through. It was always a big deal to me as a little guy to stay at a motel.

 

I'm not sure, but it looks like a 1958 Aston Martin DB Mark III.

 

You may well be correct, but I was thinking an O.S.C.A. 1600 GT

 

Who remember the Kodak boths ? For some reason I thought it was fun going to them

I miss drive in theaters . I had such good times as a kid with my parents and a teenager in the 80's we use to sneak friends in and use fold up chairs ourside the car and sit on hot nights sometime after the late 80's they started to disappear which was sad

 

Don't get me wrong, I have contributed more than a handful of post even as late as a few pages back but my input is miniscule compared to others. Also I see we both have seven pages of contributions. Nothing even close to some on H.A.M.B. There, I guess I just made another contribution.
