Now my Dad had a 57 Chev that was rose and ivory. I didn't get to drive it much as I left home soon after he got it. I see by the line ups of cars that you had a big job photographing the cars.
There was a city bakery here that had a fleet of black and white trucks like this. They had chocolate powered donuts to die for... well, at least for a 10 year old. mmmmmmmmmm
@Lowell: the last one reminds me of a Ken Burns documentary called Horatio's Drive, in which a doctor made a fifty dollar bet in 1903 that he could drive across the country inside of three months.
@Red: there were really a lot of them out there this year.
@Jennifer: they certainly do.
@Birdman: I noticed looking at the pics that I turned up in a reflection in that delivery truck's window!
They are all wonderful William! Takes one back in time...
ReplyDeleteEach of these thrills me in a different way!
ReplyDeleteFabulous old classics! I love them all but the third one down, that one speaks to me.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I love the colour of the second one. Someday, I want a fridge that colour.
ReplyDeleteI love the old fire brigade vehicle! Must have been fun wandering through all these old timers.
ReplyDeleteHoly cow! What a fine collection of oldies.
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of old cars preserved, nice to watch them.
ReplyDeleteThey really don't make them like that any more - which is both good and bad I suppose!
