Old picture(s) with you and car(s)...
 

Just for the fun of it, let's see how many people can post an old or early day picture with their car... what the heck, any car!

I'll start -

Without giving my age away :rolleyes: the attached picture was taken in June of '57 and I was washing my Fire Chief pedal car. My dad was washing our '49 Studebaker (I believe that's what it was) at the same time. Even then I was into cars and guns as you can see my trusty six shooter under my belly!

So com'on, I dare you to post some FUN pictures! :D

Thats a cool pic...

Cool picture! Thanks for sharing...

Okay, since know one is is playing, I'll share some more pictures. :)

The first pic is my wife (then girlfriend) back in '73 with my '63 Impala ragtop. That's right, we're going on 37 years of true bliss :) together! Then I just had to share some of my now 10 year old grandson Chase helping me work on my old truck then in my '67 El Meano. Chase is already a gearhead and loves to go FAST, whether it be car or boat! His words, "Faster Happy, faaster". (Happy is what he calls me). He actually cried the day I sold the '67 SS and loaded it in the transporter. :( Now it's time to make new memories with the new Chevelle!!! Waving

Cool pic's.
I'll have to try to figure out how to use the scanner/printer at the house.
I've got a few old pics of the 67 and the 64 at the house.
I'll get my 20 year old son or his gfriend to help me out.
Need to learn this new fangled technology anyway, I guess.

Here's me around '91/'92...

Damn, I AM a handsome guy! :p

Great Car!!

Me showing my 90 year old grandfather my '71 Chevelle (my second Chevelle by the way) after I finally got it running. I bought it as a roller. Then the second pic is my high school graduation day back in May 1985 with the same car after I upgraded to a tunnel ram. :D

Well... I had just turned 16 years old in 1980, and I was dying to have my own car. Not just any car... it had to be a "cool" car.:cool:

I didn't have much money, but my parents said if I came up with the cash that they would go along and sign the paperwork. Searching the classified with my meager savings I found a '68 Chevelle for $175 with a 350 and a powerglide.

My Dad and I went to look at it that afternoon. It definitely was going to need help, but my Dad said that there wasn't anything wrong with it that couldn't be fixed. Dad was never a hot rodder, but he always maintained his own vehicles and had worked briefly in a body shop as a teenager before joining the Navy.

We took it on a test drive, and a couple of blocks into it the car died and wouldn't restart. I'm sure I must have flooded it and drained the battery trying to re-start it.

The owner showed up with another car and we towed it back to his house.
Being the shrewd businessman that I was, I promptly offered him $150 and he accepted.;)

Well, a rope tow later it was home.:D

After 6 months of replacing body parts and slinging Bondo, it was ready for paint. (A neighbors brother painted it for the cost of materials),I then rebuilt the heads in autoshop, added dual exhaust, installed air shocks, mounted 5 slots, a pair of Posi-traction brand 60's on the rear(remember those?), a cheap AM/FM/cassette deck and a pair of Jensen 6x9's in the rear deck, a pair of "Dirty, Mean, and Nasty" mudflaps AND matching floormats (mudflaps? What the hell?) and I was ready to cruise.:D

This isn't quite the same as the pics you guys have posted...

It is old, and has "cars" in it. I am 33, so there aren't too many "old" pics of me driving anything floating around out there.

My father is the baby in this pic, he was born in '50, so I am guessing this was '50 or '51 maybe. That is my little Italian grandmother, and my aunt in the pic with him. :D
