Vintage shots from days gone by!

Brattleboro, VT

 

Detroit 1945

 

Mogollon, NM 1940

 

Madison, WI 1962

 

Fresh stock marching in ?????

 

Hard to tell which car was used in this photo, the spec sheet says four speed but that's a day two Hurst "Yo Yo" shifter replacing the factory "spaghetti" shifter.
The article says M/T specifies his cars with a three speed transmission, wonder how long before he swapped the column shift for a Hurst Syncro-Loc.

If I remember correctly, This lakster had a DOHC Pontiac Tempest four cylinder. Home made head. I thought the motor was really cool. FWD lakester a little odd looking to me.

I found a pdf on the Pontiac zone site which talks about this car a bit - the link is ugly looking - I hope it works https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwje0dzgptffAhVEXawKHQf7Cw4Q5TV6BAgBEAs&url=http://www.pontiaczone.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=29249&d=1505967184&psig=AOvVaw08g1Y3XVN6diCoGhsgH6p2&ust=1546800077996514
