1964 Pontiac Parisienne

 

From Alex Emond, in the Canadian Rockies (or the Rockies, as we call them). "I was surprised to see this Pontiac sitting in a Canmore, Alberta driveway, especially at this time of year. It is in excellent shape, a V8, two-door beauty. From a Calgary dealership . Canadian Ponchos had their own names and the Parisienne was up from the Strato Chief and the Laurentian but not quite a Bonneville. Beautiful car. No idea what those numbers on the headlight signify..."

1957 Jeep truck

 

We have previously posted on Brooks Stevens, who designed this era of Willys trucks and station wagons. This unit, a 1957 Jeep flatbed (with a flathead Super Hurricane 6) is a New Hampshire truck, now in on the block at Hemmings.

                                          

1930 Ford Model A roadster

A.J. Baime's piece on Stacie Depner and her 1930 Ford Model A was in Saturdays's WSJ.

 

 

1966 Oldsmobile Toronado

 

The Toronado was posted on RockAuto's January newsletter. I like the car and love the setting, which looks to be the Laurentian hills in AL's  native Québec, in early October. Or possibly les Appalaches. This is, weirdly, the very first Toronado AL has ever posted. We have hosted many a Riviera, though, like this 1970 Buick Riviera for sale (cheap) spotted a few years back, in Maine. And a 1973 Buick Riviera that was once for sale in California, at several multiples of the Maine car's price.

Another Ford Ranger wheelbarrow. Somerville MA

A creampuff. Could this really be a 12-year old truck? On the salty streets of Somerville? There it was, a totally functional, clean-living, utilitarian truck. A wheelbarrow, in other words.  This truck perhaps grew up somewhere like West Texas or Arizona. 

 

3 for the road.
