THE 50s...
 |
If you're into early rods, this is one of the best pics you'll find on The Huff Report... My dad snapped this pic in 1956 at a local drag race. This file is fairly large... | |
 |
Where is this car today? | |
 |
I have no idea who these people are, but they're standing in front of a pretty cool car... It appears to be an early '50s Chrysler Imperial 2 door hardtop.... | |
 |
This is another one that my dad snapped in the late 50s....... I think this may have been photographed in Little Rock.... | |
 |
My dad's 1950 Ford convertible.... | |
 |
My uncle Bill's 1954 Buick...... | |
 |
Bill bought this '57 Del Ray sedan new in '57 with a Corvette engine... This car, on today's market, would be worth a small fortune.... | |
 |
My dad's '54 Mercury convertible.... As you can see, this car has been customized..... | |
 |
Same.... I believe my dad said this old Mercury had 1953 Cadillac headlight rims... | |
 |
Same.... One more detail about this car that you can't see in the thumbnail is the painted door insert. That was a fairly common kustom touch back then... | |
 |
Same.... Note the modified grill... | |
 |
Same.... | |
 |
This is a flea market photo.... Neat '54 Nash..... This appears to be a Statesman sedan... | |
 |
Another flea market find.... If you click on the thumbnail, you'll see a mid '50s Olds in the background.... | |
 |
Here's my dad again, with his '57 Olds at a local drag strip..... | |
 |
Here he is in Florida.... This is actually a 1957 Oldsmobile J2 Convertible, with FACTORY stick! | |
 |
Here's another flea market photo... The boy on the back of this scooter doesn't appear to be too happy.... | |
 |
Here are a bunch of guys goofing around in their Chevy convertible... This appears to be a 1947, but the photo was apparently snapped sometime in the early '50s... | |
 |
More of the same guys.... | |
 |
This guy's name must have been Don.... | |
 |
Dashboard of the convertible.... Is it perhaps a 1948? It's definitely a Chevy... | |
 |
This appears to be either a 1949 or a 1950 Ford... I can't really tell the difference... | |
 |
Here's a 1957 Ford convertible snapped by my dad... He and his brother went to Florida for a little vacation in '57, and that's probably where this photo was snapped... | |
 |
This appears to be an early '50s Hudson... Click the thumbnail for the 56K version, or click HERE for an even larger pic... | |
 |
This appears to be a Chevy Panel Delivery... | |
 |
Same... | |
 |
Same... | |
 |
Here's a color photo my dad snapped in Florida... That's a new 1957 Oldsmobile convertible... If you look closely, you'll see the tail end of a 1957 Ford that appears to be a mild kustom... | |
