1941 Dodge sedans, Banff

from Alex Emond, in Banff, Alberta: "These two 1940 or early 40's Dodge sedans showed up this fall in a back yard close to downtown Banff. The grey one is a Special De Luxe, and I am not sure about the darker one , which is more "luxurious" . Really nice and possibly out of the two, get the green/brown one rolling down the road . I have no idea what the story behind these cars is ... I think I know who might own them . Won't be long before they're covered in snow ... maybe even by tomorrow morning. "

The license plate is dysfunctional: this is a '64, maybe the best Cadillac of the fin phase. Caught in Cambridge. AL posted a sweet '60 in Blue Hill a while back.

Divco Milk truck.


from Alex Emond out on the Canadian prairies: "The milkman always honks twice. Here's a cool looking relic from the days of milk in bottles. This was just off the trans Canada Hwy in Irvine, Alberta. A vehicle with potential."

3800 Chevrolet, 3100 Chevrolet


From Alex Emond, in Saskatchewan: "Here's an old , circa 1951, Chevy Tow Truck. Sorry that these are a bit fuzzy, like you need reading glasses. This truck was in Eastend, Sk. . If you like 'patina' , this is gorgeous...



...Here's another similar vintage Chev half-ton . Alongside the Hwy , through the village of Lisieux, a place so small you don't even have to blink to miss it."
AL: we've posted more Advanced Design trucks.
