Guest mercman86 Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 (edited) Heres what brought me home, my folks 1985 Chevrolet Astro, the first year they came out. Here it is parked in front of our apartment on Parkside Drive on the northwest side of Chicago. On the other side of the trees was the Kennedy Expressway. They bought it brand new, it was a completly stripped down model. I think the only options it had on it was AC and an FM radio. Im probably one of the younger members, I was born Feb 14, 1986. They drove that van untill the wheels fell off, I remember when my Dad sold it in about 1996 with well over 200K on the clock. I know its nothing special and probably will never be a collectors item, but I have lots of fond memories riding around in that thing!

John_Maine Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 March 21, 1950 - 1947 Ford Super Deluxe 2 door fastback. I remember riding in it when I was little. My folks traded it for a 1951 Ford Crestine Victoria in 1953 or 1954. I remember when they did that as well. I remember standing on our front lawn looking at both cars in the driveway while my parents talked with the salesman. The '51 proved to be troublesome and was traded for a 1954Crestline Victoria with automatic and power steering in 1955. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jrope Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 !948 Hudson Commodore, Physicans Hospital, Jackson Heights NY. HEY, jrope was St Vincents in Greenwich Village?I was talking about the St. Vincent hospital in Erie Pa. I understand that Saint Vincent was the patron saint of physicians or healers, so there were a lot of Catholic hospitals in a lot of different cities that were named in honor of him.

wws944 Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 (edited) Either a '54 or '55 Chrysler convertible. Dark gray with a red interior. Beautiful car, but apparently it was 'always in the shop'. (And interestingly, to this day, I am always attracted to that color scheme.)Fun thread. Mom and I had a good time reminiscing about it.UPDATE: It was a '55.

Guest prs519 Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 I am thinking they said Kaiser for me, but my little sister Robin was nearly born IN the car, a 1954 Chrysler New Yorker. My late father was disposed to go from snowbound country to more snowbound country (near the Grand Tetons) This was back when they generally got so much snow that rotary plows had to almost tunnel thru, making a slot in the snow you could not begin to see over. Well, half way to the hopital he came around a turn and there was an enormous bull elk, with a horn span approaching the total distance across the channel! He said he would gun the car first to one side, then the other, until finally he got the elk turned enough to gun it on thru! I still think they should have name Robin Elke.

John Gelfer Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 It was a 1939 Chrysler with the rear floor rusted out. That was 1952, and it lasted until 1956 when the engine blew and my folks bought a new Plymouth. The Chrysler was towed to a field where an advertising sign was attached to it. I think it sat in the field for another 10 years before it disappeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest danceswithpumps Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Mom and I were ready to go home from the hospital but it was about 30 below zero on that very cold March day. She convinced the doctor that we would be going home (30 miles away) in my Grandpa's brand new 1948 Oldsmobile. He finally said that it would be ok. Much better ride than Dad's 1937 Terraplane. I'd give quite bit to have either one of those 2 cars now. Don't forget Mom on her day this Sunday, "Mothers' Day".Rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ray RI Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 When my folks found out they were expecting my brother, dad traded in his 1967 Fairlane 500 convert for a new green 1971 Mercury Montego MX wagon. That car brought both my brother and I home and served us well until 1976 when it was traded in for a new all black Mercury Monarch 2 door which we ran for 12 years and then had parked in the garage untouched for 13 more years.
