    Wolf's Truck????

    Ken is that Wolf's truck in photo #1? Nice to see he had it out again. Looks like the Hood has gone to hell. Must be the economy.

    Given the Jax and RC Cola signs, Id guess it wasn't Wolf's neighborhood.

    Wolf, I had to look twice, but then I didn't see the back end filled with 50 cases of Jax beer, a yard of gravel, 2 dozen 2X8's 10 ft long and 2 boxes of red wine (for Zig), so I knew it wasn't yours!:D;)

    @ No. 1 of 8, the 57 Plymouth, what were they thinking on the fins? I remember them well. @ No. 2 , the 51 F**d convert is a beautiful classic :)

    Is it a '57 or '58 Plymouth?

    Here's shots of both. '57 had dual headlights with parking light/ directional signals next to the headlights, almost making it appear to have quad headlights. The '58 had quads. Tough call, given the small pic.

    Re:Image 8

    This looks to be an armored car. Notice the gun ports in the side. Too cool!

    Now that you point them out I do. I did a little searching and came up with this 1947 International Armored Truck.
