1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I found that so much more frequently growing up on the east coast! I miss seeing yards like that

Growing up my mom had a 56 ford pickup she inherited from her dad that sat broken in our driveway (we lived in a suburb of DC so we only had a one car driveway and no yard to park in). She wanted to restore it but owning a small business and having 4 kids meant there were zero funds available for anything extra. It was there for a decade broken before Dad forced her to get rid of it

 

We all had our shots. Though the cars were mostly in the 10 year old range and hadn't started rusting out yet.

 

Nope

 

They all can live. I would prefer a 6 speed and I believe the awd fj case still has a manual lever

 

I wish I had the time to take and go get those. I’d have a blast with a 4x4 Tercel

 

What’s up my harambes

 

Go away

 

@Empty_Lord you should tons and 40s the '66

Picture won’t load out here in nowhere’s ville

 

Nice

 

Oh you meant a different kind of harambe

 

Same here.. Those could be some fun little critters. Though we don't have snow here nowadays to really justify their use.

 

Lift em and put Jeeps to shame

 

Aw hell. 1946-1948 body style. The original flat head motors were ok while they lasted. Though a Chevy OHV straight 6 lasted way longer.

 

Connecting several hundred wires

 

I'm a fan of the 60s 292. Though lots of guys love the stovebolt 6s that started in the 30s

 

Don't forget to add fragile paper label tags that degrade with heat and time so the next tech shatters them all

 

I learned how to drive in an old Chevy stove bolt pickup with the "starter pedal". Keeps you in touch with the engine operation.

Exhilarating
