pre 1940's gas station, just an awesome photo, and a rare early color one
Only advertising big wheel I've ever seen, great idea!
Unusual Superbird with a 1970's funly paint job

3 ads in one dealership... Rambler, Jackson, and India, I like that slogan "No sand too deep, no hill too steep"
What are they doing with this elephant? Trying to break the car?
Rockwell was such a talented artist and pretty good at humor too

Clint Eastwood
Katherine Hepburn?
Petty on the left, Yarborough on the righ if I recall correctly, in the Woods Brothers Mercury
Jimi Hendrix
Why did Ford have more ugly Falcon models than good looking Mustangs?

Looked through onthelosthighway.tumblr
Great home built kart... get a look at the steering wheel! Photo was taken by John Gutman, in Georgia, 1937 http://www.johngutmann.org/viewer/index.html and incredibly, ridethemachine.tumblr posted this yesterday... but I found it on "onthelosthighway.tumblr" today
The look of a maniac, ain't that a grin!
Dangerous and deadly racing.
http://onthelosthighway.tumblr.com/ is a guy who took these photos of his dad, and his dad's 1924 original and untouched Harley Davidson
http://onthelosthighway.tumblr.com/ is mostly tattoos, it's NSFW, but it also has a lot of respect for Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, and Babe Ruth.

three dozen reasons to know you'll like looking through Go Away Garage blogspot
Above a WW2 Crosley 3 wheeler
Gas in the spark plugs... wow, that was a long time ago
I think the above is the supercharged straight eight
not good to see your back wheel pass you by
Stutz Blackhawk at Ormand Beach
Steam powered lawn mowers.... your neighbors would freak out. crew cab model a, custom made


Great old vintage bike stand
They said it's photoshopped, but I don't care
Ner a car
They look like they are bolted to a bar under the bikes, probably a carnival ride


Above is a Willys or Graham I think
I like the van without the headlights, nice custom bodywork look
Private Hawaiian plantation tourist trainride Morgan, very early I bet
I'd never heard before that Oral Roberts (televangelist) had bought a Futurliner... huh
That helmet is terrific
I know I have forgotten what I used to know about the above dragster.
1906 Stanley Steamer set the land speed record for steam powered cars at Ormand Beach, and that 126 mph record still stands. Steam was obsolete so quickly after Stanley and Doble perfected its use in cars, that no one even tried o break their record
Way cool Triumph gas tanks stringed art. I doubt it plays, but it does look incredible



Gyro stabilized car
Vespa in the back of a Citreon 2cv... awesome
see these and a whole lot more at http://goawaygarage.blogspot.com/ but don't look while at work, there is a lot of hardwood floors and tatays
