1956 Chevy

























Union, Missouri

Carmi from Written Inc. is host of the meme Thematic Photographic. This week he asked us to feature something retro. Carmi said "If it's from the past and it makes you feel good, we want to see it."  I learned to drive in a Studebaker truck older than this one, but, this one takes me back to those days and that makes me feel good.

  2. I am in love. I get weak and giggly around a classic Chevy. I'm not even girly, but there is something about the sharp angles of this kind of trucks that turns me into a bubbly 13-year-old ;-)

  5. Man, you have two active sites. Most that have two or more are not having each one open but you do! Cool. I've seen this one more often than the other one but, they are both great. I'm now making sure I am following each one. Please join me if you haven't already? ok?

  10. Great Chevy pickup. Fond memories of these trucks. This was back when a pickup truck had to work for a living, not just cruise to the mall. Your photo makes me feel good too.

  13. Not that we had them like that in the UK - but I bet you could bang around the dirt roads in that!

  15. Can't go wrong with an old truck - nothing like the luxury cars with a truck bed they sell these days.

  16. Wow, that is a LOVELY truck. I know vehicles have become so much more sophisticated in recent years. But nothing touches the old stuff from a design perspective. No Nissan Altima will ever stir my soul like one of these just did.

Thank you for stopping by my site. Without your visits there would be no incentive to continue posting. So, having you here and reading your comments is the highlight of my day.

I regret that time does not always allow me to return visits to everyone who stops by, but, I will certainly do my best to get to everyone. I will definitely answer any questions you leave me.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
