Love the dual tail pipes, they were loud on my 1955 Ford. The spinner hub caps were the "in thing" in 1964, great photo.
Thanks ttom ! I didn't even notice the dual pipes till you saw them. I just found the photo of back of car last night . It was a good era !!! Thanks for stopping by to I appreciate it .
Oh Man, sometimes when I see pictures like this I really get... oh whats the word... you know... just wish I could go back to this time for a while, I get like this after a couple a beers..LOL, I'm on coffee now. Wouldnt we all love that car now!
EJW it is good to remember those days once in awhile since we won't see them again :-( Not only the days but no cars will ever hold up like these oldies and you could fix them yourself unlike today ! Glad you got to stroll down memory lane with me on this one :-)
