I was down a little further in the trees from you as we were parked according to year. Again, wish I had been more involved with the Forums and would have sought you out. I remember the car just never got a chance to speak with you. GREAT EVENT for me and my boy! (we are at the very right) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesR Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) Finally have a picture of me and an old car...just not my old car. It's a 30's era Studebaker that was left abandoned by some Okies or Arkies on their trek to California back in the day. It's displayed by a marker at the entrance to The Petrified Forest in Arizona, one of the places we visited this summer. Anyone know the year and model of that car?

ejboyd5 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) Car is the Mercedes-Benz Standwagen from the 1956 New York International Automobile Show. I acquired it in 1970 from the man who purchased it at the Show. Edited January 7, 2020 by ejboyd5 (see edit history) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Green Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Here is a picture of me (early 20’s) and a car I still own 46 years later (72 vette). I have since become a purist (with short hair and much older). Car has a fair amount of Baldwin Motion stuff (doors back) with the front end from California (told 3 were made). Now sports a front ground effect spoiler. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter J.Heizmann Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 As with 'ole Ron Green I owned this 1972 TR6 since new. Meet was held by the stadium at Virginia Tech. Had no idea West Peterson trudged up to the top of the stadium to take the photo. (If I recall correctly West was not too pleased for all the pigeon droppings in the stadium seating area)...😀 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunnybaba Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 This is just one of several Model A trucks that I have built... doing open heart surgery, face lift and knee replacements, and kidney transplants on them... to bring them back to life, and make them better functioning, than they were new... then driving them thousands of miles on long road trip, for many years as my daily drivers.....

V16 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 My wife and I at Pebble Beach with our 1915 Packard Special Roadster. The car was built and driven by Carl G. Fisher, the man who built the Indy 500, The Lincoln Highway, Miami Beach and more! He drove it as the Pace car in the 1915 Indy 500 race as well as the Fall Classics of the same year. He also used the car to survey parts of the Lincoln Highway. It is basically all original except for late 20's repaint by Eddie Rickenbacker when he owned the Speedway. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
