Shop Rat Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 This is poor Woodstock sitting out in the snow with his jammies on. Bill had moved him up to the main driveway to work on putting new springs and other parts on. Then the snow hit on the nineteenth. The snow is deeper than it looks because Woodstock is up on BIG blocks of wood almost the size of cinder blocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F&J Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 (edited) Pics taken about 4-5 years ago when I lived about 15 miles further north. I was stuck in that horrible uppity town for 4 years till I got back on my feet...and finally found a place with LARGE buildings so all my cars, and my sons tractors could all stay indoors.In the second pic on the far left, you can see what was my former daily driver, all dug out....a 57 bug...with a gasoline heater mounted 1 inch from the gas tank. That car was warm as toast, and only had visible fire under the car just once From left to right: 57 VW sunroof, 66 Chev camper special 4x4, friend's 65 VW sunroof, and 63 Chev suburban Edited December 22, 2009 by F&J adding years, IDs (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCHinson Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 January 20, 2009 - We actually had a little bit of snow in Wilmington NC. I took our 1929 Model A Ford Phaeton out for a little drive and had my son take a photo of it. (We don't get many chances for photos involving snow here.)

It is part of the National Photo Company Collection at the Library of Congress research archive.The location is believed to be the current Beach Drive NW near Tilden Street.

stock_steve Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 (edited) Ugh, the snowfall here on the Connecticut Shoreline from this past Saturday night into Sunday morning (12/19-12/20) was a heavy one--about a foot, I'd estimate. No fun shoveling, but did take my '60 Bug out for a couple of pictures...(no, it obviously wasn't sitting outside during the snowfall, and no, I don't take it out on the roads when our "salt-happy" town's been out and about with their trucks...I am already missing driving it...)

Shop Rat Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 I agree Mr. Earl. Maybe the AACA could get permission to use the good ones and make cards or a calendar as a fund raiser for the Library and Museum.Hey Steve, are you out there? What do you think about that idea?
