@AmFlyer posted:I am running out of new items on the layout, beyond this will require an archeological dig into the storage crates.
Here are some Oldsmobiles on the layout. The blue, black, bronze and red are all the same manufacturer. The blue, black and bronze are 1953’s. The bronze has the clear plastic hood that was used on the NYC Auto Show display car. The red is a mild custom 1950 fastback. The green car is a 1950 two door sedan by a different manufacturer, I have multiple colors of these.
I remember those cars, rode in several of them, was still to young to drive at that time. I did have both a 1951 and a 1952 Chevrolet, both hardtops. The 51 was stick, the 52 had Powerglide. I would drive the 51 in the field next door, I didn't have my license yet, I got the 52 when I got the license and drove it hard til the engine made loud knocking noise and then expired. My next car was the 1955 Pontiac Chieftan, probably my favorite of all my cars
The one pictured here is very close to the color of mine.
I did locate another truck for the thread.
