Good morning and Happy Wednesday!... Still on our extended Hershey 2014 Car Corral browse... This time we have a magnificent mid-'50s Chrysler Imperial 2-door... Wow, whatta car... "That thing got a Hemi in it?" (I'm going to assume it does)...
How about that plate? Get it?!
Cropped and enhanced portion of the interior shot--yes that does appear to be an under-dash record player...
-
No. I kick myself for not asking. I was just intrigued by its story, and busy taking photos. I think I was in "I can't afford it, so won't ask" mode, instead of "journalist" mode
I fixed the post, though, as I had the wrong year listed. It is a 1929 Type 37.
Yes, I often find myself asking myself why I didn't try to gather up any more information about the subject of various photos I take also, afterwards, when I'm going thru the photos that I took. Sometimes I luck out when I can enlarge the photo to discern some details from the window card, for sale sign, etc..
By the way, latest AA arrived in little old Stony Creek, CT yesterday, and WOW, what a TREMENDOUS Hershey report in there! Along with tons of other great stuff as well! THANKS and NICE JOB West and everyone who makes it happen!

Able to squeak one more in for today, from the Hershey 2014 Car Corral browse... Superb and apparently all-original(!) 1932 Chevy Sedan (original image plus a couple of cropped enlargements; sorry did not take any additional shots of this creampuff)...
-
One more for today as we continue our casual Car Corral browsing... '58 (best guess) Lincoln Continental Mark IV Convertible... Looked like it needed some love, but otherwise pretty complete... No idea of asking price... Have a great rest of your Tuesday...
-
One more for now from the Car Corral... Very nice, very clean '78 Pinto wagon...
-
Good morning and Happy Tuesday... Continuing our Car Corral browse... Quick-on-the-draw to capture this beautiful Mercury woodie wagon rolling thru, followed by a big Buick...
-
This 1927 Bugatti body amazed me when I saw it. It was an original body (with some repairs/modifications through its racing years), that was deemed "un-usable" in the 1970s when the car was restored.
Wow. Any recollection on ballpark asking price, West?
-
One more for lunchtime today... 1977 AMC Barcelona (custom-edition Matador)... Wow... I also did some googling on flags of Barcelona, and found that the red & yellow theme (that appears on the "Barcelona" badge, and also within a small emblem on the opera window) seems to be predominant, ref: http://www.pics4world.com/vb/showthread.php?t=5579 ... P.S.: I did take a few pictures of that super-nice '64 Rambler wagon that was next to it, on a different day, but I'll be getting to those eventually for sure. What I'm trying to do is present my pictures *in the order they were taken*... Have a great rest of your day...

'40 & '38 Buick Specials (along with a '30 Model A Roadster) in the Hershey 2014 Car Corral:
-
Another Car Corral shot where I liked both the cars and the shadows they cast. Left to right: 1930 (best guess anyway) Model A Ford Roadster, 1940 Buick Special 4-door, and 1938 Buick Special 4-door. A tiny bit more detail gleaned with some cropped & enlarged views also...

OK - kind of a rainy morning here today - I'll add a couple more photos to this post - how about this White from the swap meet...and the airplane!

Nice car! Don't think I remember seeing that plane--wow.

Have been going thru my Hershey 2014 photos at this dedicated thread: http://forums.aaca.org/f228/hershey-2014-experience-favorite-photos-383100.html
Here's a Buick ('39 or so?) that was among the Car Corral subjects that I've covered there so far.
I will be reporting back with future Buicks from the Hershey 2014 experience, as I go thru my photos...

He sounded like a great guy. Sincerest sympathies and condolences to his family and friends.

One more for Monday morning from the Hershey 2014 Car Corral... 1953 Kaiser Dragon--positively eye-popping. The wikipedia page indicates that the "Dragon" as a model, was 1953 production only, ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaiser_Dragon

Good morning and Happy Monday!... More scenes from the Car Corral browse... This time a spectacular group of three brightly-colored sports cars, including Mercedes, Austin-Healey, and Porsche!
-
Last one for today, from the Hershey 2014 Car Corral... I liked this grouping of cars, and the shadows they cast. Closest to the camera is a '47 Hudson (yes, I cheated and blew up the window card for that), the one in the middle I am stumped on, and then the far one is an early '50s Chevy, I believe... Any help on identifying that middle car?... Happy Friday and Happy Weekend!
-
One more Friday lunchtime installment for now from the Hershey 2014 Car Corral browse... This Mustang II Cobra II edition had some rather eye-catching graphics, in case onlookers were unsure as to what it was... Wow!
-
More from the Hershey 2014 Car Corral... "Pimp-tastic" '73 Eldorado!... I think you need a certain style hat to drive this car with...
-
Good morning and Happy Friday!.. Here comes a cool little Nash Metropolitan making its way thru the Car Corral, possibly followed by a '37 Ford (best guess anyway)... Some strategic cropping, enlarging, and rudimentary image enhancement attempts suggest that the Met may have been a '59 Model, with a $16,900 asking price, and the suspected '37 Ford behind it looks to have been indicated as being "all original" and with a "$15,000 - make offer" asking price... Happy Friday once again...
-
Continuing our Hershey Car Corral browse... "Patina" Chevy Pickup, mid-late '40s vintage, it would appear... Did not take any other pictures of this one, nor remember anything about what the asking price may have been, etc., but it sure was cool, and looked plenty original...
-
While we're on the subject of Panel Deliveries, how about this positively fantastic early '50s Pontiac that was parked nearby the Morris in the Car Corral--WOW!!!... Sorry, no other info on this one... Happy Thursday!
-
Beautiful little Morris panel delivery truck, apparently being offered by Ragtops of West Palm Beacn (http://www.ragtopsmotorcars.com/)... Blowing up my picture didn't yield too much info, but does that look like a ~$12k asking price?... I did a little big more googling today and found this listing on Hemmings, indicating it was a '71 model (if it's the same car?), and other info: http://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/dealer/morris/minor/1586942.html
-
Old-VW enthusiasts that we are, there was no way my wife and I could not check out the late-era VW Bug Convertible... This triple-white one was a beauty! Sorry no recollection of asking price... The wheels look aftermarket, but otherwise, very correct-looking... Separate front seat headrests originated in '77 (ref: http://www.vw-resource.com/years.html) so this must've been '77-'79 era, best guess...
-
Looks like we are now on the other side of the underpass, and looking back at areas of the Car Corral that we have already walked thru... That's a beautiful late '30s Buick dominating this scene, if I am not mistaken... Happy Wednesday afternoon...
