  1. Luv2Wrench, boy, you do great work. Beautiful paint job. John
  2. Great topic! I would pick 1959, as I started grammar school, and was aware of the cars in my neighborhood. On the corner , an elderly couple owned a 1949 Plymouth, that was always garaged. Even in 1959, the Plymouth looked brand new. Mr. Winney always owned Chevrolets. He had a 1958 Bel Air 4 door sedan, 6 cyl. stick. Mr. Hogan had a 1951 Mercury 4 door. Mr. Johnson just bought a 1956 black Plymouth Savoy 4 door sedan. Mr. Driscoll, owned a 1957 Oldsmobile 88 2 door hardtop. The Augustine family had a 1952 Brown and Tan Bel Air hardtop. The Horton's owned two cars, 1955 Buick Special Hardtop, that Mr. Horton would paint the tires with Blackwall paint to make the tires look new. Their second car was a 1950 Studebaker Champion Convertible. The Meyers had a 1952 Packard, 1956 Oldsmobile, and there son owned a 1939 Packard sedan. The Dyakoff's had a 1953 Desoto 4 door. and that was just one side of the street.
  3. That is a nice clean Catalina. Pontiacs from the Sixties were probably the best built cars for the money. Fit and finish, plus performance were their calling card.
  4. Ron, that is a wonderful display. Beautiful car.
  5. I missed the show, and would love to see what showed up.
  6. Any pictures from the AACA Auburn Meet this past weekend?
  7. TerryB, Milliput is good stuff. I still would strip the bus and use a good primer, then paint it yellow.. You have some nice projects going on, Terry.
  8. (s), thanks for the clarification. It is a "V" shaped base. John
  9. This car needs a lot of work. It is not a factory color, and who knows what lurks under the chrome rocker panels? And the owner wants $27,000.00? 1959 Pontiac Catalina convertibles are not that common, but I don't know about this one.
  10. hursst ,really coming along nicely. Great work on the MG.
  11. (s) the jack is in good condition. I just need the base. It is for the passenger car. Sorry, posting pictures is not my strong point. Thanks for the response.
  12. Looking for a 1949 Studebaker Champion jack stand base. Please PM me. Thanks, John S.
  13. John, Aztec Bronze was a color available on 1966 Chevrolets. Aztec Copper was available on the 1957 Corvette.
  14. Looking for a 1949 Studebaker Champion jack stand base. Would take complete jack and base. Please PM. Thanks, John S.
  15. TexRiv, that is one nice Buick. You certainly have a knack fr picking up great cars. John
  16. 58L-Y8, I believe the Studebaker was sold, and the new owner is flipping it. It looks like a different address in Brooklyn.
