1929 Rolls, owned by a guy in the next town, who bought it from the States, - he is the 2nd owner, and has only refurbished some of the wood, - everything else is untouched from 1929 !

 

Finally got a pic of it. Think it's a dodge

I espied this little treasure in Jackson Calif. today......

 

Cat eyes. Not one of their more stellar design cues. Although after seeing them for 60 years they are beginning to grow on me...

 

What is it?

'61 Mercury Comet.

 

One of the local geezers, in the green shirt, owns this super cool MB. He bought it of some Prince in India, check out the license plate. I can't make out the model, 220SC? Valuable I'm sure. Rare?

 

Hello,

I just got back from getting my wife’s station wagon “smogged.” I have been going to this small place in an industrial tract near the coast for many years since 2011 with my own car. But, never with my wife’s station wagon. I found out that any new car is exempt from getting any smog work done for 8 years. So, from now on, it is every two years for the smog checks on our cars.

But, while I was sitting and waiting, across the lot was a very nice and clean looking Ford pickup truck. In talking with the next door business owner, it was a 1961 Ford truck in for some repairs. It looked like a daily driver, but very clean and stood like it was 1961. Sitting in this old industrial tract, I immediately went back to that year as we cruised by this place when we were on our way to the outstanding waves at the nearby U.S. Marine base back then.

Time flies, but somethings stay the same. The old industrial complex has been known as the “Surf Ghetto” in our circles since those early years, but there are so many different small businesses that make up the whole industrial area, back then and now, 61 years later.

The blue 1961 Ford truck… a time piece of history.

 

Went to pay the tax man today. He lives in a real high end cookie cutter sub division and a few houses down I notice this flat black mid 60s Plymouth wagon on mags with a giant Dodge hood scoop rumbling out of the driveway

Actually yesterday. These two 7 foot long tire racks standing outside in the junk corner at my local tire shop. FREE .
Guy even brought them to me in his big van at the end of the day. ( 1/2 kilometer ) After a clean up they look new. Now i know he likes cookies and donuts so i offered him a weeks supply for the workshop lunch a coffee breaks.

 

Supposedly a one owner car.
Not sure the year 59? 60?...
Those tail lights are just cool...

 

saw this stuff and more yesterday, April 17 at swap meet in Nor Cal

 

They look like they would be firewood racks if they came to my place...

Well friends, I sold the '57 Fairlane last month and I had another project going but I did miss the daily driver routine . I was on the internet and was just looking around and found this car in Georgia. For some reason, it just spoke to me.
I showed it to the wife and she said "get it", so I did.
Dave Phelps loaded it up in his trailer and delivered it to my door.
