Blast to the Past

Bob Clawson ~ Corpus Christi, TX

The B/W picture taken in '49 in Corpus Christi, TX, is my husband Bob with his '40 Ford. He's had many '40 Fords since that picture. Color picture taken in 2002 with our '40 Ford in Corpus Christi, TX. We married in 1952 and our love for '40 Fords continues.

Alan Page ~ Golden, CO

Had this '55 Chevy at age 17, and it was already my fifth car!!! I got a $60 Model A Ford at age 12, then traded up. This one had three-two's, a race cam, a hurst on the floor, and it left most of it's rubber on the college campus drive. Good memories!!!

Frank Mills ~ Richmond, VA

This wasn't my first old car, but it was cool looking even though it was only a body with a chassis (no drivetrain / glass / interior, etc.). The project never got finished (as usual) and now it's gone to California.

Tom Metcalf ~ Petaluma, CA

Hi, I wanted to share with you a photo of my husband Tom & his '30 Model A Ford. When Tom was 16 (1957) he could not afford to buy the car for the asking price of $25!

John Fosbender ~ Loudon, NH

Photos taken in '61-'62. The '51 Merc, "Moby Dick" was my car and had a Caddy mill.
