The pic was dated 1957. Those cars are of vintage age now if still around. It's awful about your 1956. I got a used car when I started working. Kept it for a few years as my stipend was also limited then. Was lucky it didn't give much trouble. Those were the days! <br /><br />Hankkaykualahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03240206222973305395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1980374748220249244.post-47712071796643090142014-02-01T19:35:58.964-08:002014-02-01T19:35:58.964-08:00Yes, I lost pictures of grandkids growing up too.

...I like the thought of gathering the clouds, Hank.<br />Also I like the vortex picture with all of those 50's automobiles. There is a real pretty '55 Ford Crown Victoria in the middle and up close is a 1956 Ford Fordoor painted white on top with a greed skirt. <br /><br />I had a convertible, 1956, with those colors. I bought it new but only got to keep it for a few months as I got drafted into the Army in May that year. My car payments were more than my Army pay. And we were four, two kids, a wife, and me. We were really poor even without the car.<br /><br />Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982249173214655060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1980374748220249244.post-37159906177727299072014-02-01T19:11:49.829-08:002014-02-01T19:11:49.829-08:00They may look nice on one day and the next they co...They may look nice on one day and the next they come at us full force at our bay.
