Re: Old Street Scenes

I do have plenty of more to come. Like I stated previously, it seems Dog427435 and I have quite a bit of the same stuff. In fact in his last post were a couple of photos I planned on posting.

I cannot take credit for ANY of these photos...it is all stuff found on the internet.

Even when you ate some of your earnings $11.63 for the two week period and $105.89 for the year. That must have been some good food if you ate there that much Charley??? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Re: Old Street Scenes

The 11.63 was I guess meal allowance but we never paid attention to that. We ate well....MMMMMM bacon waffles.

I think it was a 1940 Chevy Special Deluxe Coupe, 235 6 cylinder, split exhaust with a Clifford intake with 2 1 barrel carbs.

Re: Old Street Scenes

Seeing those tow trucks reminds me of a toy I owned called " Big Bruiser " A White motoized truck with a crunched car you could tow around. Anybody remember that one

Re: Old Street Scenes

Cool tow truck! I had to push mine around by hand, and they were made of sturdier metal than todays Hondas and Toyotas! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Did you miss the Tiger-Joe clip Geoff...it was on the same page as the Bruiser..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmMBM...eature=related

I had a similar rig to the Bruiser but not quite the same..
Actually I have it now and almost all my old Christmas trucks plus older one's I'd been given too as I found boxes of them still in the basement at the folks place a few years back...Buddy-L, Marx, Structo, Tonka and even a few Canadian Lincoln brand units too..

Re: Old Street Scenes

I knew this building during the 50's and 60's as "Pryor's General Store" growing up in Shrub Oak, NY - a small hamlet in Westchester County. Since the early 70's it became a liquor store which it still is today.
