I believe it was vintage car day in Vancouver on Monday. When was the last time you saw a Mercury station wagon?

Man that sure looks like a Camaro a buddy of mine built before he passed away . Had a twin turbo LS motor in it. He built the front air dam out of steel himself. If it’s the same car. He was a chassis builder in CT all custom chassis. Last I saw it it wasn’t painted. Sweet car.

That Hudson is a Gorgeous body style I’m not sure I’ve ever seen one like that. Kind of a el Camino look for its day nice sleek look to it. Usually they have a goofy roof line or something is OFF about the body lines w Hudson’s , maybe it’s just the angle of the picture but that body looks nicer to me .

I've seen this Lark a bunch of times. This is the first chance to get a photo. I'm pretty sure it's a daily driver.

I met the owner. The owner is a nice guy who got his love of Studebakers from his father.

Not prewar but I spotted this El Camino running around North Portland. And the 67 short bed was at Shurway Lumber. I chatted with the owner and his wife a bit. 6 cylinder 3 OOT truck bought in 91 for $400. The owner built the canopy. It was nicely done.

I've seen this car twice at the same grocery store. First time, a young man came out of the store and drove it away. I'm pretty sure he works there.

I've seen this A100 driving around town for at least a decade. I used to know the guy who put it together then he sold it. If memory serves me correctly it was a slant six originally but now i think it's got a 318. (The first guy built it to haul his vintage 160 race bike. Back when 160 Honda racing was just getting started.) Pretty sure it's still a daily driver these days.

Went camping near Carbondale, saw this when headed to look at aspen. I don't love it, but it caught my eye. I have no idea what it is. Mercury?
Not a driver but this is highly visible bait for a donut shop: Mike |

Not too often do I see a classis, collector, vintage, antique in a parking lot. I usually see them on the road when I'm driving to/from errands.
