Which would you steal? CAR SHOW pics, 1930s-50s

[Tommy Fedora]

The 50 Olds 88 brings back memories of when I was a young boy and my dad bought a new (used bomb) car every six months, or until it died which wasn't much longer. Lots a fun for a car-nut kid and his brother.

I'd be drivin' off in the Model A. And my wife would be right behind in the Cabriolet.

 

[Smithy]

Without a shadow of a doubt the Jag!

 

[Jack Armstrong]

My grandfather, who was a Ford salesman, wouldn't forgive me, but I've gotta go with that '39 Chrysler. What a beauty.

It would have to be the '49 Mercury Convertible! That guy with the winged helmet is sooo coool.

 

[jamespowers]

The Buick!

And the Oldsmobile! (I brought a pal).

Thanks for the excellent pictures.

Hey! Those are my choices! :eusa_doh:

Regards,

Ahh When the US made cars that people wanted to buy.

I know I don't care to tackle this one.

Show her some love, she might fix herself up...

I am partial to that '39 Chrysler Royal.

My first car was a 1949 Chrysler Royal; she was a big heavy dark green thing, if I had put turret guns on top, she would have passed for a tank.

She was so heavy I could drive her in a blizzard without snow tires and there would be no one on the road but me and a few VW's.

She had mohair seats and was semi-automatic. Those cars were made to run forever.

Would you settle for a 39 Dodge? This is my paternal granddad's 39 Dodge in 1951. I wonder where its molecules have dispersed to.

A ford fan

I am a die hard Ford fan, but that Jag is just too much. Wow.

 

[imoldfashioned]

1933 Ford Cabriolet for me too--that's a gorgeous ride.

The Jag is a Ford---now.
The electrical system in the new ones proves it.

 

[HadleyH]

That's mine!

 

[Forgotten Man]

Tough!

My, that dark red ’40 Ford is a nice little number. I think if I had the cash, I’d buy the ’40 Ford… or, the ’33 Cabriolet… but, I know those go for at least $75,000.00+ because so many idiots hot rod them.

But, deep down purrs a MoPar power plant… I’d have to go with the ’39 Chrysler Royal.
