My GM collection isn't in nearly as good shape as the Mopars (see the Vintage Mopars thread), but they're all solid and the restorations are coming along, slowly, but deliberately. Main problem with these, along with the Fords & the "other" makes in the collection, is lack of storage space. Correction: make that "indoor" storage space. A few are in those temporary sheds, more to follow. We're gettin' there. I'll post the Ford/Lincoln/Mercury cars to the other thread, and maybe I'll start a "Vintage Other Makes" thread, a place for all those Dusenbergs and Packards.
Here we have:
1. 1939 Cadillac Sedan - It runs! It's also lots cleaner than in this picture.
Interior is original and very clean. Like it so well I attached 2 pix (also
because one of the pix is poorly focused). Excellent all metal body &
sound frame all the way around.
2. 1940 Chevrolet Sedan - Also runs & looks better (cleaned up a bit) than
depicted. Interior is original but it is rough. Again, all steel body & frame
are in excellent shape. This is the advantage of being (much!)closer to
the desert than the ocean.
3. 1953 Chevrolet "Yellow" Cab - Used often & tirelessly in film shoots in the
LA area in the 1970s and 1980s, as were most of the other resto projects
we have in the collection.
4. 1968 Chevelle SS -- That's "SS" for "Super Stock", not super sport. This
vehicle is a near first-generation Super Stocker that my uncle built and ran
at NHRA events throughout the region. This sucker had an original 427
BB stuffed into that compartment. We've pulled the block and the original
12-bolt rear and placed them in safe, dry indoor storage. This thing is
super light (esp for a Chevelle) and will eventually make a great street rod.
On to the Fords!
