i studied the trailer with the 3 cars,,,and i envisioned a slow drive thru the local hill country to the ford dealers,,,a great pic,,,thanks

 

 

sha-zamm ,,,,,,,, my high school dream ride,,,thanks for posting it, to jar my memory loose,,,,

 

Chrome reverse & baby moons and white walls, thats old school

 

Some morning wood(ies).....

 

I needed that Scott, looks like a proud group of guys there huh, great picture

 

Is this G.B's shop now that he has a pattern?

 

 

If I could make my current shop rate for cabinetry and millwork and produce a row of woodies I would jump all over it. Of course at modern shop rate they would need to be 200 grand each judging from how long this one is taking. I did make some patterns, but there is so much I'd do different next time they are mostly just approximate. And Scott, these last couple of photos are really, really cool, as always!

 

I would love to know the story on that fleet of woodys. Tour buses/ Maybe school buses?

 

Look what I found

 

Yes, some of the old photos I post are from The Old Motor, including those woodies.
It's a great place to see some mechanical history. Any gear head should check it out

 

I too wanted the story behind so many woodies. So now I have another place to surf for automotive ****.

 

My curiosity was really peaked when I saw the Irving Oil sign. Was wondering who could have afforded 10 woodies besides Irving Oil, makes sense that it was the Government as they've been giving us the woodie ever since

 

It would be interesting to know how the fish cops used them. Something about the picture just reminded me of the Yellowstone and Glacier Park White model 706 (and 614s)
