1987 Dodge Power Ram

From Reid Cunningham: Bedford NH. "My best guess is '86 or '87 for this Power Ram pickup. The upper chrome strip from headlight to taillight, along with the roof gutter trim look like aftermarket additions. These Dodges seem like the last trucks with hood ornaments (I found pictures of 1991 Dodge trucks that still have the ram ornament), Ford and GM had updated trucks without them years before. Hood ornaments, extra chrome trim and pinstripes are dress-up items that have long disappeared from trucks. With spring approaching and longer days, more old iron is sneaking out for us all to enjoy."

AL: maybe our favorite Dodge is this earlier Power Wagon 150 in, of all places, Cambridge MA.

Willeme Trucks

 

From Don Green Culbertson, in northern France. "Willem trucks: established 1920s, bankrupt 1970. They were manufactured in Nanterre, outside of Paris. Known as postwar heavy hauling trucks; used as tanker/oil field hauling trucks, they could pull loads of 200 tons. These examples were spotted outside Rouen." 

AL: One Willeme  for sale here.

1967 Fiat 1500 Pininfarina Cabriolet

 

The style of Italian cars of that era...clean and simple. Così elegante! We caught the 1500 at Motorland in Arundel, Maine. Don't believe is is for sale, though...Speaking of style, maybe the most beautiful car ever: the Lancia Flaminia we posted a while back.
