oldcarfudd 491 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Peter, we should have a drag race! But first I'd have to strip my car of all unnecessary weight, like lamps and top. Also, Coker sells smooth, untreaded tires in 30 x 3-1/2 size. Maybe we should mount them, at least on the rear wheels. When the throngs of adoring spectators came to watch us race, we could tell them the tires were the last word in racing slicks! Gil Fitzhugh the Elder Link to post Share on other sites
PFindlay 261 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Sounds like a fine idea. When you're stripping all that extra weight off your car I have just the place to hang it. Before the drag race, we'll have to check rear sprockets. I may have the hill-climbing sprocket, for our B.C. mountains. If that's the case we'll have to add a hillclimb event to the day's activities. Fair is fair. The car isn't actually mine - I just take care of it for a friend. Her grandfather bought it (used) in 1910. Yesterday was such a mild dry day out here in British Columbia that I decided to take it out for a quick picture. Peter Link to post Share on other sites
auburnseeker 4,186 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 It's not the best photo but I forgot it was a fall photo until I posted it for reference on another thread. The wife and I out in my 57 Tbird and 56 Olds the year after I met her. We were running the 56 Olds up for winter storage an hour away and stopped for this photo op and to make sure everything was going OK. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
amxdreamer 12 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Here is an older pic of my car before I switched to the correct Polyglas tires. The new tires fill the wheel wells properly and make the car look much better IMO. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Reicholzheimer 21 Posted 15 hours ago Share Posted 15 hours ago (edited) Some early Fall pictures up here in the Smoky Mountains Highlands NC. Drove the 65 Bug on a 40 mile drive and seen some color on the trees. Looks like maybe an early winter. Edited 3 hours ago by Reicholzheimer (see edit history) 3 Link to post Share on other sites

John348 1,085 Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago I took my old Chevy out for a drive on the North Shore of Long Island yesterday to see if the leaves are starting to change, not yet a few days away. I will get some photo's when they do. It is still rather warm here not just in the day but at night as well. My wife is still swimming in Long Island Sound Link to post Share on other sites

playswithbrass 206 Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago Hard to get a good coloured tree right by the road. It’s supposed to rain through the week and that will bring the leaves down. Will miss our yearly drive through the mountains seeing the fall colours on the way to Hershey 3 Link to post Share on other sites
victorialynn2 1,398 Posted 9 hours ago Author Share Posted 9 hours ago (edited) So nice to see the fall pics. Especially this year when we all need a “pick me up”. Thanks for reviving the thread @Reicholzheimer! I hope to get my Ford out this week while we see some sunshine here in Oregon.

Marty Roth 2,104 Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Sorry, Victoria, but we don't really get a change of season, or a change of foliage here in the New Orleans area 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Joe in Canada 774 Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago (edited) Here you go Marty with a little color behind the evergreens. To-day I had a car out for a tour by myself for the second run for the summer. Rain the rest of the week but when the weather brakes I should get one of the Ts out for a run and a photo ope.
