i was in town yesterday picking up some parts for my latest project and came across this little Chevy powered Model A on a coffee run.cool.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

I've seen this one driving around North Portland for at least ten years.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Saw this after work yesterday.

Gasser to Boot! I'll give that three thumbs up since I grew up right in the era of "Gasser Wars"

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Yea at first I was like oh cool tri5. then I saw it closer and was like Wahoo Gasser Tri5. Haha

I think my BIL might know this guy and actually worked on the car, along with his "other" tri5 gasser. :metal:

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

That's 3itchen man!

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

For those interested in gassers there is a group who run regularly. Southeast Gassers I believe it's called and they run over Tenn, North and South Carolina, Georgia way.

How about this cream puff?

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Yeah! I like that!

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Saw this one out and about yesterday.

I'll take it!!

This '60s style '55 Chevy gasser pulled into the local convenience store yesterday.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

That's a cool truck. makes me smile a little bit there's a lift kit on a stake bed which somebody has to load, presumably. Maybe with the fork lift though. Looks like there's an aluminum aero-foil on top of the cab. Pretty important to make sure that you got aero considerations covered when you've got a full load in your stake bed, haha. Neat truck for sure. I'd snag it in a heartbeat…

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Nice. Aside form the gasser stance that could belong to a guy I know. He has a white/blue one that looks almost identical.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Yea I have been seeing so many more of these older work trucks lately. It's like they just came out of the woodwork all of a sudden. I would drive this thing for sure.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Saw this at the local Wally World, parked well away from the crowd. I do the same when I take my '57 out for a spin. Seems too many folks just don't seem to respect classic iron for what it is. Thought I knew all the tri-fives locally here, don't recall seeing this one before. Pretty clean looking Bel Air, will have to watch for it and get acquainted.

I drove mine down to Pound Ridge NY for a Christmas party Friday night. Over a 4 hr round trip at 12 mpg. Not bad for a 402 with 3.54s

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

I recognize that license plate. ;)

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Even though I switched from a 69 to a 70, I'm NEVER getting rid of that plate, the DMV was in a good mood that day when I got it.
Now when I had that plate on my 81 GMC, it made me look like a pervert :lol:

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

A couple from the last couple weeks.

The Dodge at the grocery store in NOPO.
And a 70 with a pair of 389's sitting in front of the tailgate.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

While bombing around NOPO in my S10 Blazer I spied these two today. I see the F100 fairly often.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Saw this DMC over in Clackamas today.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

I saw this '57 Ford at the store Yesterday.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

And with side pipe exhaust no less! Don't see that much at all anymore. Wonder if those are THRUSH pipes? They used to be really big on the street machines with side exhaust in the late 60s and early 70s. Little bit of a jacked up rear end, five spoke custom wheels. Old school, baby!

My Grandpa had a two tone blue and white 4 door '57 Fairlane he bought new when he traded in a 4 door '49 Ford Custom.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

I like it just the way it is.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

We went to town today for the first First Friday in Canon City. Seven cars showed up where we sometimes fill the whole block. One of the cars that did show up was a '50 Desoto with an LS motor.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Gotta love it....Granny's Sleeper.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Funny you say that. It was bought by his Grandpa when he was seven and he got it from his grandma.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Keeping it in the family is the cool thing....besides the drive train.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Very cool. His plan is to keep the patina.:metal:

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

I see this one around my town regularly. It looks & sounds great! Guy keeps it super clean.

Spied this nice Cornbinder I Hollywood this morning.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

I saw this slick Stude on National Green Truck Day.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Thats cool, I love those models of Studebaker trucks.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Out running some errands this morning and stopped by my credit union to do a bit of business. Looked across the street and seen this Ol' Timer parked and just had to snap a pic with cell phone. The body was in nice shape, paint had some minor nics and blemishes. Looked like the seat still had original seat material on it but was showing some definite wear. The Kansas plate on the front was from 1929 and it was running a antique plate on the rear.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

An A truck has always been one of my favorites. Super cool.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Awww -

A few years shy of being 100 years old.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Spied a Montobanobile today as well as a nice Barracuda. It seems like a decade since I last saw a running Cordoba.

The Camaro was from last weekend.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

Some from the last couple weeks.

Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.
 

I get to hang out once a week with quite a few , but once in awhile I see some out and about .
