smithbrother Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 The second picture of the 49 Sedanette shows the beautiful flowing lines of the REAR fender. I have a pair, always wanted to make a small pull behind trailer out of such, wouldn't they make a great set of trailer fenders???? I think so.....Some day over the RAINBOW............Dale in Indy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldwood Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Downtown Little Rock, Ark. Thanks for posting the pic of L.R. ARK. All of the BIg names stores ie. Dilliards, Cohns, Phiffers, Kempners... are all gone. They moved west away from Downtown. The only one I know that has survived is Dilliards but not downtown. Instead of saving all of the great architectural Bldgs they are being razed. The Little Rock planners killed Downtown when they closed off main street and made it a walking mall . Back in the early 60's I would get off of the school bus blocks from my parents office and walk the car dealerships. I looked for hood scoops which usually meant Big blocks and 4speeds. Times have changed. Now we can't say Merry Christmas without being scorned. I did drive my ' 50 Buick Sedanette on Christmas even though it began to rain and then freezing rain and then @ 10-12" of snow. I had been without power for 5 days but it was restored last night. I was having withdrawls for my favorite car web sites. My name is Dorsey and I'm a autoholic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
