And the flying Hudson happened just outside of Banks. Xander, curious who you bought the car from? It’s a small town and I may know them. What a coincidence. Link to post Share on other sites
Xander Wildeisen 1,504 Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 That is taxing the brain. That car was bought off of ebay in the spring/summer of 2009. The owner lived in a manufactured home/housing neighborhood. The car sat under a car port. He had owned the car for a long time, had work done on it, and never got it back on the road. Seats needed to be redone, and some of the trim was not on the car. Bought it in non running condition. Might be able to go through me ebay feedback, and get you an ebay name, if that helps? A lot has gone on out here since the purchase of the Desoto. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Bloo 1,520 Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Xander: Do you still have the DeSoto? I used to have one just like that (but a different color). Link to post Share on other sites
Xander Wildeisen 1,504 Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 No, it was sold in late 2009, can not remember the sale date. I have a lot of pictures of all the cars that I have owned. Most of the pictures have the dates on them. So that is how I know when I bought/sold them. I have always liked 55 Desotos, a person can find good buys on 55-56 Desotos. Great entry car for a person wanting to get into old cars for not a lot of money. Very over looked IMO. Link to post Share on other sites
SC38DLS 1,085 Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 My first car was a 57 DeSoto. 2 door with a small Hemi Bought it at Mr Norm’s grand Spaulding Dodge in 1963. The only old rusted car on the lot. Paid $200 for it that included title tax plates and a new set of tires. Me Norm’s was the muscle car place in Chicago area. Link to post Share on other sites

victorialynn2 1,398 Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 I feel like there should be awards: Best auto/foliage color Most creative “foliage” Best scenery The problem is that I love all these photos, even the ones without cars. I’d have to make categories until they all won. One thing I have learned from this thread, is that nowhere do our beautiful autos look better than in natural scenery. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Bollman 440 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I dumped the memory card on my trail cam for the first time in a few weeks and found I had a current Fall photo of my 50 F1. This is me coming home from our Fall tour back on the 4th. Found we had 6 visits from bears on the trail cam too. Hadn't seen any since the spring. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

DieselBenz 3 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 One of my Mercedes from a couple years ago, somewhere in New York in October. And one from last week, not my car, but a beautiful 1912 Lozier that was at the Simeone Museum in Philadelphia ... fall colors seemed a bit late to pop this year. I haven't really been looking at the trees lately, but this thread has reminded me I should take a drive and enjoy what fall colors are left before bare-branches season hits. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

victorialynn2 1,398 Posted November 21, 2017 Author Share Posted November 21, 2017 Here is fall foliage in Quartsite, Az and a couple bonus shots. The very first time I ever backed up the trailer into a spot BTW. (Do not ask how many tries/times it took. I got here early and had the lot to myself to practice.) ? 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Xander Wildeisen 1,504 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 If that empty trailer is going to haul back a 34/35 Hudson Convertible. You can drop it off here in Idaho. The tire laying on the ground, does add to the pretty sunset. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, there’s a lot of litter around but I was going to miss the shot so ran with it. Dad sold his Hudson’s before I got involved. I will drag out some photos for ya one day. I still have a hard time going through his photos. This has all been lot to digest. I think I’m going to rescue the 63 Corvair Spyder this trip. I’d ❤️ To get that going but not exactly sure what’s going on with it. Hopefully it’s not too big a project for me to keep. PS, That tire is old enough to qualify this post for an AACA post. That’s my story anyway, since there are no old cars in this particular post. Edited November 21, 2017 by victorialynn2 (see edit history) Link to post Share on other sites
