This old guy is surely weathered. Nice capture.

Thanks guys! The owner says it was parked there in the mid 70s after her father passed and there it has sat since. Kinda sad.

Should be donated to the TV show overhauled and let Chip Foose do his thing.
I bet this gem in the rough would be a very sweet ride.

Thanks Rob!

I think you're right CH3NO2, this thing would make quite a restoration.

A friend had one in the fifties and we use to double date in that car!!

Brings back memories.

Restored - that will make a nice ride!

Thanks for sharing.

Love the detail shot's. There is an excellent car museum by me, and I need to get shots like you have here. Thanks for sharing them.

Great pics! Really enjoyed looking at them.

I recall my Dad had that hood ornament laying around somewhere. He also had a 1936 Studebaker for most of my life.

The old cars were built like tanks! Closing the door sounded like a bank vault closing.

Jeff,
My mother had this exact car in the early 50's! Hers was black with the sun shade. Just wonderful capture of a relic!
The texture, the detail, the corrossion...all symbols of the passing of time caught for immortality!
Excellant!

I came across one similar a few weeks back, first time I've ever seen a hood ornament as such.

Enjoyed your images!

Thank you everyone. Sorry I haven't been on to reply, I had an emergency appendectomy! That was an adventure. Unfortunately my wife wouldn't let me bring any of my cameras to the hospital! I was on so much morphine, that could have been interesting.
