Re: Vintage picture thread
I sure am enjoying all the photos you guys are sharing. Can I slip in my old '78 Silverado? That thing was a great truck (Mahoghany paint/Buckskin interior,454,posi,loaded to the gills),but I sold it to buy a '71 Blazer.

Re: Vintage picture thread
No trucks in this one. I took it around 1968 or 69, just a kid trying to be creative with the camera. My dad's '61 Impala in the driveway and the neighbor's '63 in the background.

I remember them. That was when the trash man had to get out of the truck. We also had a milkman when I was a kid. I loved it when I actually caught the milk truck. I would run out and get chocolate milk from him.

Re: Vintage picture thread
This is at the site of the original 'Widowmaker' hill in Utah. Most people are surprised to learn that there was a motocross track there and that for a time it was on the AMA World Cup tour (or whatever it was called at the time). For some reason, they got Evil Knievel to come do a promotion, and this is him, on a Harley, on a motocross track. This was in 1975, I would say.

Re: Vintage picture thread
My aunt gave me these 2 pictures from my grandmothers stash. I am the one sitting on the my dads '69 corvette. Must be maybe '76 I was 2. The other picture I am think is my brother about 1978. My old man still has those cars, I miss them more then him. I am sure his new wife will sell them before we get them.

Re: Vintage picture thread
I still use an ash can or metal trash can for my aluminum cans. It was here at my house when I bought it in '86. It was all beat up (from trash men tossing it),so I used it for the light duty job. I have to set the lid down on the can with one hand while I hit just the right spot on the side of the can and the top pops on nice and snug.

Re: Vintage picture thread
And Schlitz hats! Never had one of those. But,my best friend named his German Shepard Schlitz.Can't imagine why. He later became a Budweiser drinker but didn't get a dog to name Bud.
