Limerick Classic Cars AKA Rotting Hot Rods!

[Dog427435]

[b] Route 422 is a four lane highway that runs from the outskirts of Philly up to Reading, Pa.
I had seen the front of this lot many times driving 422, but in trying to find it had always wound up
in a maze of dead end dirt roads. I was stopping at a new outlet store job site near by and
gave it another shot. I spent an hour there the other day and never saw another person.
As there was no one to ask I'll give you my best guesses as to what you are looking at.

[b] This '49 Chevy was sitting in front of a home about a mile away - real fifties style,
a 4 door made to look like a 2 door with a suicide knob, beer tap shifter, curb feelers ,
Moon Eye's behind the front wheelwells etc. -
But check out the back yard!! There was all kinds of stuff back there!
