My hometown, sometime in the later 50's (I think the second car back on the left is a '55 Ford) - some good looking metal in the streets. Dat wagon on the right...

They sure knew how to make some terrifying-ass grills back in the day. Love it.

Nash wagons were the coolest wagons. Or, is this a shooting brake?

Let's see. There's obviously a '50 Buick parked on the left side then I think that's a '55-'56 Ford Main or Customline parked behind the '53 or '54 Nash Rambler wagon. And little further down the road there's a '57 Olds parked in front of the Nash.

I haven't nailed that difference down yet. I just know the overall design dates from 47 on. Those have the awesome hood hinge design. It opens side ways, on both sides. Pretty cool.

Ah, you're right. I thought it was a Deliveryman at first.

I get bored too easily to not make access to such things happen. One more pic, for the people
