Cute pics! My sisters used to dress likewise. You never asked what was under the bonnet. You just took it off - especially when you wanted to bug them! Now, cars don't have bonnets anymore!
Great history!!!! I wish i had that story.....buy alas....i am but a poor wagon junkie to the toolbox and thanx for the fantastic pics
This weekend is the Vintiques Northwest Nationals here in Yakima. I decided to pull the Wagon out of the garage for the cruise night. Put the car seat in the back and loaded up the wife and child for some cruising and a stop at the local Dairy Queen. Figured since I had it out and cleaned up I'd take some pics.
wow... My grandmother had a plymouth sedan about that color. It always smelled like chanel #5. I loved riding with her to get ice cream...she wore white gloves, too sometimes. Thanks for the reminder.
Sue, its a bit off-topic, but if you haven't seen 'Driving Miss Daisy', you should. The different cars are the producer's trick to show the timeline. From a 1930-ish Chrysler, through to a 1940's Hudson (the real maple door trim on the inside), to an early 50's Caddy, then a 1958 Caddy Eldorado Biarritz, and finally a 1964 caddy. But all the cars on the street too. My mother and my granny (dad's side) were Channel 5 fans too. It's a sweet made-for-pondering movie. The key actress was also the main character in the Fried Green Tomatoes flick.
